Return to:Engineering Science AS
This curriculum is designed to provide the first two years of a four-year program leading to the award of a BS in engineering. A student planning to transfer to any baccalaureate degree granting institution should follow the appropriate track listed below in consultation with an engineering advisor. The student should also visit the Montgomery College Engineering Advising websitewww.cuyoungalums.com/engineeringadvisingfor up-to-date comprehensive information on transfer requirements for all universities and colleges with which we have an articulated transfer program.
Completion of all requirements for any track in engineering science will lead to the award of the AS in engineering science.
This track will prepare students to transfer to a four-year university with a major in bioengineering. Specific requirements in colleges vary, and the student preparing for a particular institution may, with approval, change the sequence listed below; this sequence of courses is articulated with the bioengineering program at the University of Maryland, College Park. A suggested course sequence for full-time students follows; all students should consult an engineering adviser. The student should also visit the Montgomery College Engineering Advising website atwww.cuyoungalums.com/engineeringadvisingfor up-to-date comprehensive information.

Total Credit Hours: 61
** Behavioral and Social Science Distribution (BSSD) courses must come from different disciplines.
Advising Notes
- Most engineering students will start at MC missing one or more prerequisites forCHEM 131,CHEM 132,CHEM 135,ENGL 102,ENES 100, andMATH 181.
- The appropriate initial chemistry courses will be determined by the student’s score on the Chemistry Placement Exam, mathematics level, AP/IB credits, or transfer credits. Possible courses includeCHEM 099,CHEM 131,CHEM 132, orCHEM 135. EitherCHEM 132orCHEM 135satisfies the required chemistry credit for UMCP.CHEM 131-CHEM 132satisfies the required chemistry credit for UMBC, butCHEM 135does not.
- The prerequisite forENGL 102isENGL 101orENGL 101A. English course placement is determined by the Accuplacer English/Reading Test.
- The corequisite forENES 100isMATH 165or higher.
- The prerequisite forMATH 181isMATH 165(Precalculus). Mathematics initial course placement will be determined by the Accuplacer Math Test, AP/IB credit, or transfer credits.
- ENES 120(3) is a gateway course for transfer to the bioengineering program at UMCP. BIOE 121 (1) lab will remain to be taken at UMCP.
- BIOE 121, 241, 371; and BSCI 330 for which MC has no equivalents, must be completed after transfer or through MTAP at UMCP.
