Engineering, General
Associate in Science Transfer (AS-T) —Track 2
Planning Guide 2015–2016
Program Information
Program Description
Length of Program: 90 Credits
Completion Award: A.S.-T Degree
The Associate in Science Transfer (AS-T) degree is
designed to prepare students entrance into a Bachelor
of Science (B.S.) program in Engineering. This AS-T
degree is a Major Related Program detailing the
required foundation courses for students to be prepared
for junior standing at baccalaureate institutions.
Students will be required to take additional general
education courses after transfer. Engineering is also an
excellent major for graduate studies in Engineering,
Environmental Science, Law, Medicine, Business and
Education.

Engineering—What is it?
Engineering applies mathematics, science and technology to design, test, manufacture and improve new products, materials,
structures and processes. Engineers interface directly with business and industry, and often specialize in specific areas to
include Aeronautical Engineering, Bioengineering, Chemical, Civil and Environmental, Computer, Electrical, Industrial,
Mechanical, Materials Science and Bioresource Engineering.
Areas of Study in Engineering: Calculus, Chemistry, Physics, Statics, Dynamics, Thermodynamics, Mechanics of Materials,
Electronic Circuits, Engineering Problem Solving, Manufacturing Processes, Project Design, Project Management, Product
Safety, Quality Control and Professional Ethics.
Career Opportunities—What can I do with a Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering?
Engineers develop strong technical, problem solving, critical thinking and communication skills that apply to a variety of
career fields, including research and development, product design, project management, product inspection, teaching,
sales, manufacturing and consulting.
Potential employers include: Engineering Firms, Consulting Firms, Manufacturing Companies, Government Agencies,
Colleges and Universities, Business and Industry. For more, please visit career information and resources
at www.shoreline.edu/advising/counseling-services/career-counseling.aspx

Engineering Planning Guide—2015–2016 | Associate in Science-Transfer (AS-T)—Track 2
The AS-T transfers as a package to most baccalaureate colleges and universities in Washington, satisfying most pre-major requirements and some
general education courses for junior standing. This AS-T Track 2 requires a minimum of 90 quarter credits in college-level courses numbered
100 or above with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher. Each individual course must have a minimum grade of 1.0. In addition, this transfer planning
guide identifies specific courses to take within the AS-T degree to prepare students for entrance into baccalaureate majors in Engineering.
See the reverse side for a complete listing of courses that fulfill the general education and distribution requirements.

FOR ENGINEERING, GENERAL
University engineering programs require specific courses for
each major. This “Engineering, General” Planning Guide shows
the minimum requirements for the Associate in Science
Transfer-Track 2 degree. These minimum requirements by
itself will not usually meet admissions requirements into the
junior year of a specific engineering major. Please also use the
additional Planning Guides:
•
Biological and Chemical Engineering
•
Computer and Electrical Engineering
•
Aeronautical, Civil, Industrial, Manufacturing,
Materials Science and Mechanical Engineering,
Plastics and Composites
There is also a handout: U of Washington (Seattle) College of
Engineering.
Students are encouraged to study the schools and
departments to which they plan to apply and work with their
academic adviser to make a course plan.
* These courses are admission requirements at some universities
for some majors; they are not offered at Shoreline, but can be
taken at nearby colleges.

Shoreline Community College Planning Guide | Course List
The following is a list of classes that satisfy Shoreline's 2015-2016 AS-T degree requirements. Credits for a specific course may be used only
once and may not be applied toward more than one distribution area. Course numbers with an “&” are common course numbers that are
consistent across all Washington state community colleges. To graduate from SCC, complete the Application for Degree and turn it in to the
cashier (2nd floor FOSS-5000 Bldg.) along with the $20.00 application fee no later than the quarter before you plan to graduate.
