PROGRAM OVERVIEW

ENGINEERING TRANSFER OPTION - 2009
Engineering Program
(Associate in Science Degrees):

The Associate of Science in Engineering Program is offered as part of a response to the skill shortages in the engineering workforce, and is consistent with the mission of the College. It is designed to meet the needs of BHCC students and to address the workforce demands of Greater Boston. The curriculum is structured to mirror the freshman and sophomore years of a university engineering degree. Accordingly, the Science Department is developing articulation agreements with area universities to enable BHCC engineering graduates to transfer as juniors, upon completing the Associate of Science degree. The curriculum offers two options: an Engineering Transfer Option and a Biomedical Engineering Option.

Overview

Program ID - AS.EGTRN

This option provides students with the technical coursework and laboratory experience that enables them to succeed in undergraduate engineering programs. Students planning to transfer into Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, Structural, Materials, or other related engineering degree programs should enroll in this option. Upon graduation from BHCC, students are able to pursue further study at four-year colleges and universities.

Career Outlook:
Graduates completing a four-year degree will have a strong engineering foundation and able to select from a variety of high demand fields for the balance of their training. Such high demand fields include Nanotechnology, Materials, and Robotics.

Upon completetion of this option graduates will be able to:

• Design and conduct experiments.
• Analyze and interpret data.
• Apply computational tools and scientific concepts to engineering problems.
• Design systems, components, or processes for solving engineering problems.
• Function as part of an engineering team.
• Articulate the professional and ethical responsibilities required of engineers.
