Certificates
Certificates are programs of one year length for full-time students. Certificates require 9 credits of general requirements be completed as well as major requirements for a minimum of 30 credits. Requirements for the certificates may be articulated with the associate of applied science degrees. Contact an advisor for assistance in planning a program of study and choosing appropriate courses.

This certificate will start the student toward a Bachelors of Science in Engineering (BSE) and will facilitate transfer to an engineering program of their choice in their second year of a four year curriculum in engineering. The certificate coursework concentration is on mathematics, science and general education requirements. Three pre-engineering certificate pathways are available with basic requirements that span the foundations of engineering disciplines. Pre-engineering certificate students select courses for a specialization track that best suits their needs.
