* See specific requirements for the Associate in Science Degree.
Entry to many university engineering programs at the junior level requires additional engineering courses in the first two years. Students who complete the requirements for the Associate in Science degree may find that an additional year of study may be necessary after transferring if the engineering courses are not completed at ICC. Depending upon where a student is intending to transfer, it may be more beneficial to complete the Associate in Engineering Science Degree. All engineering students should meet with an engineering advisor as early as possible to determine which degree would be more beneficial.
