2026-2027 Catalog SVC
Materials Science and Manufacturing Engineering Emphasis, Associate of Science-Transfer, Track #2 Engineering Major Related Program (AS-T 2/MRP)
|
|
Overview
The engineering courses are designed to introduce students to the field of engineering and/or fulfill prerequisites for upper division engineering courses. Because many of the engineering courses have math prerequisites, and because most engineering courses are offered only annually or biennially, getting started on the appropriate sequence is important.
Learning Outcomes
|
Transfer
If you are considering a major in this emphasis and transferring to a four-year college or university in Washington State, an Academic Advisor can provide you with recommended courses to complete your Associate in Science - Transfer Track #2, AS-T degree. Of course, educational plans may vary, based on which quarter you begin, how many credits are taken, placement into Math and English, and your preferred transfer institution. To keep you on the best pathway, we encourage you to consult with an Academic Advisor for scheduling options. Degree Requirements
Students must complete a minimum of 90 quarter credits in transferable courses numbered 100 or above which include General Education courses with a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0. At least 25 college-level credits must be earned at SVC. Additional General Education Requirements (GERs) must be completed at the four-year school where the student transfers. Students should contact potential transfer institutions regarding specific requirements. 1. First Quarter Experience (2-4 cr.)
Select one course from the following: 2. Communication Skills (5 cr.)
3. Quantitative Skills (20 cr.)
4. Integrative Learning Experiences
Two Integrative Learning Experiences (ILE) are required. One ILE must be a Learning Community (LC). The second ILE may be another Learning Community (LC) or an Integrative Experience (IE). -
A Learning Community (LC) is the integrated combination of two or more courses from different areas (for example, sociology and literature, or physics and math, or speech and economics, or composition and philosophy). Learning Communities are indicated in the course schedule. -
Integrative Experiences (IEs) are curricular or co-curricular experiences designed by faculty in which students demonstrate their ability to integrate information, concepts, analytical frameworks, and skills from two or more areas in a purposeful project or experience. Integrative Experiences that are classes are indicated in the course schedule; co-curricular IEs are indicated in promotion and advising for the experience or project. Students may design a Learning into Action IE under the guidance of the supervising faculty member. 5. Equity Requirement
At least one Equity designated course is required for students pursuing an Associate in Science (AS-T), or an Associate Direct Transfer Agreement/Major Related Program (DTA/MRP) degree. Students should use the SVC online quarterly class schedule search or consult with their faculty advisor or counselor to identify courses that fulfill this requirement. See the list Equity Degree Requirement for the courses that fulfill this requirement. 6. Distribution Requirements (38 cr.)
Select credits from three areas of study: Humanities, Natural Sciences, and Social Sciences using the Distribution Lists - AA-DTA . A specific course may be credited toward no more than one distribution requirement. A. Humanities and Social Sciences (15 cr.)
Complete 5 credits from the Humanities and 5 credits from the Social Sciences. The additional 5 credits should be either from the Humanities or the Social Sciences. B. Natural Sciences (23 cr.)
7. Electives (30-35 cr.)
Required Engineering Courses (15 cr.) Electives (20-25 cr.) Students should select a minimum of 5 specialization courses in consultation with an advisor and for intended transfer institution. |
