The Associate of Science (A.S.) degree program in Engineering is designed for students who plan to transfer to a four-year college or university to pursue a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree in engineering in one of several fields. The Engineering degree program includes general education and engineering courses, which cover theoretical concepts and practical applications. Graduates with the baccalaureate degree find careers in aerospace, computer, environmental, civil, electrical/electronics, mechanical, mining/metallurgical, and nuclear engineering.
Admission to the Engineering program requires satisfactory completion of the following high school units or their equivalents: four units of English; four units of mathematics (two units of algebra, one unit of plane geometry, one unit of advanced mathematics or trigonometry and solid geometry); one unit of laboratory science and one unit of social studies.
Engineering courses required for the Engineering degree are available at the Chesapeake, Portsmouth, and Virginia Beach campuses and at the Tri-Cities Center. Only the Virginia Beach Campus offers all EGR courses required in the program.
