PRE-ENGINEERING
(ENGNR-AA)

PRIMARY ADVISERS:  Dean Burbank (ext. 2855),  and Michael Brinegar (ext.2857), Clifford Harris (x2865)
(Chemical Engineering)  Vicky Ellis (ext. 2856)

PROGRAM GOAL:  The purpose of this program is to prepare students for entering an engineering school.  Engineering is a limited access program at most universities. Chemical engineering majors are required to have CHM1046/1046L, CHM2210/2210L, and CHM2211/2211L completed before entering the chemical engineering program.  Each area of engineering may also be further limiting.  For example, the University of Florida requires a 2.5 GPA in the A.A. degree but could require a 2.8 GPA in calculus and physics courses (first attempts only) to major in electrical engineering.  Students are encouraged to be familiar with the admissions requirements at the university they plan to attend.
