Transfer path

Potential Transfer Majors:

  • Mechanical Engineering B.S.

This map prepares students for the A.S. degree. Additional major requirements and general education courses are needed for transfer. See a counselor to create an educational plan that prepares you to transfer.

Potential Career/Options After Completing a Bachelor's Degree:

  • automotive engineer
  • heating and cooling systems (HVAC) engineer
  • robotics engineer
  • manufacturing engineer

Advising Notes:

  • Students can substitute ESLW 340 for ENGWR 300/480.
  • This map starts with MATH 400 and CHEM 400, which have prerequisites. Please see a counselor to add in prerequisite courses, if needed.

Other Notes to Students Preparing to Transfer:

  • Additional coursework may be required. Work with a counselor and ASSIST.ORG to determine the courses needed for your goals.

Honors Courses (H):

Students with a cumulative GPA of 3.2 or better who complete 15 or more units of Honors coursework earn an Honors Transfer Certificate and can take advantage of honors-to-honors transfer agreements with highly selective colleges and universities, both public and private.
