ENGINEERING —ASSOCIATE OF SCIENCE DEGREE

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

The Engineering program at Hartnell College covers the first two years of the traditional professional engineering program leading to a Bachelor’s Degree. As there are different types of engineering, the Engineering Faculty Discipline Review Group (FDRG) has developed four different model curricula and each one feeds into one or more majors at the baccalaureate level. The four discipline clusters are:

1.Mechanical, Aerospace, and Manufacturing

2.Civil

3.Electrical

4.Computer and Software

The required core curriculum follows the Intersegmental Model Curricula (ISMC) developed by the Engineering Liaison Council (ELC) between community colleges and four-year public colleges and universities.

For detailed requirements for individual four-year institutions, students should contact the transfer institution and/or meet with a counselor for specific transfer course requirements in their major.

PROGRAM OUTCOMES:

Upon successful completion of the Engineering program, a student should be able to:

• employ science and mathematical skills required for occupational needs.

• design a system, component, or process with supervision of a licensed engineer to meet desired needs.

• analyze engineering problems and make appropriate decisions with supervision of a licensed engineer.

• demonstrate appropriate technical communication skills (written, verbal and drawing).

• work effectively in a team, exercise initiative and function in a leadership role.

A minimum of 60.0 semester units with a grade of “C” or better must be maintained in all degree-applicable units. Only courses numbered 1-199 may apply toward the Associate Degree. Courses listed below may have prerequisites that must be completed prior to enrolling. Consult a schedule of classes, college catalog, or a counselor for further information.

TRANSFER STUDENTS: Completing the AS degree does not meet all the requirements for transfer. Students planning to transfer to a university should follow the requirements of the four-year university. Information on course equivalencies and major preparation requirements for the University of California (UC) and California State University (CSU) systems are available online at Please consult with a Hartnell College counselor to review transfer requirements.
