Program Planning Guide

The engineering curriculum is designed to prepare students to successfully transfer to an engineering degree program in a four-year university.  

The Associate in Engineering (AE) degree shall be granted for a planned program of study consisting of a minimum of 60 semester hours of credit courses. The degree plan includes required general education and prerequisite courses that are acceptable to all state-funded Bachelor of Science in Engineering programs.

Students who follow the degree progression plan will meet the entrance requirements at all of the North Carolina public Bachelor of Science in Engineering programs. AE graduates may then apply to any of these programs without taking additional and sometimes duplicative courses. Admission to engineering programs is highly competitive, and admission is not guaranteed.

To be eligible for the transfer of credits under the AE to the Bachelor of Science in Engineering Articulation Agreement, community college graduates must obtain a grade of "C" or better in each course and an overall GPA of at least 2.5 on a 4.0 scale.
