  1. The application of scientific and mathematical principles to practical ends such as the design, manufacture, and operation of efficient and economical structures.

Associate of Arts Degree

The scope of engineering has rapidly expanded, as has the demand for trained professionals who understand the significance of these advances and creatively apply the skills of high technology to improve the quality of life.

Engineering is comprised of many diversified fields, including the classical disciplines of civil, mechanical, electrical/electronic, industrial, chemical, biomedical, communications, ceramic, and agricultural engineering.  Recent major strides in environmental, computer, and aerospace engineering have allowed these fields to reach dramatic new heights with the establishment of orbiting space stations and, one day soon, colonies on the moon.

Students interested in an engineering curriculum are advised to check the requirements of the institution to which they intend to transfer.
