BUILD TOWARD A FOUR-YEAR ENGINEERING DEGREE IN THIS CAREER-ORIENTED TRANSFER PROGRAM
Monroe Community College’s engineering science associate degree program has a national reputation for excellence. Our engineering students routinely transfer to top engineering schools.
In MCC’s engineering associate degree program, you will:
- Take engineering classes from award-winning faculty
- Get practical, hands-on experience in engineering science
- Earn credits you can transfer directly into an engineering bachelor’s degree program
- Develop practical skills and a personal portfolio of design/build projects
- Get to compete in a variety of national intercollegiate design competitions — our engineering students have won the ASEE National Robotic Competition six times!
- Be able to take classes at RIT and UR in our cross registration program
Earn a two-year degree that’s engineered for success — and get halfway toward a bachelor’s degree in engineering.
MAXIMIZE YOUR TRANSFER OPPORTUNITIES WITH OUR TWO-YEAR ENGINEERING DEGREE
Monroe Community College’s two-year degree in engineering science satisfies the freshman and sophomore course requirements for an engineering bachelor’s degree. You’ll gain a broad-based engineering education that lets you explore a variety of engineering disciplines before declaring a specialty. You’ll also be able to demonstrate your skills via a series of design/build projects.
MCC has a reputation as one of the nation’s most trusted engineering transfer programs because our engineering science degree is built upon input from highly ranked four-year engineering schools, as well as the Two-Year Engineering Science Association of New York.

A.S. Degree - Transfer Program
Department:Engineering Science and Physics
School(s): Science, Technology, Engineering & Math (STEM)
MCC Program Code: EN01
Description
The Engineering Science Program is designed to prepare students for transfer to a four-year engineering school. The courses in the program are equivalent to the first two years of study for a bachelor's degree in engineering. Students may choose any of the following four tracks: Mechanical, Civil, Industrial, and Aerospace Engineering track; Chemical, Biomedical, and Environmental Engineering track; Computer Engineering track; or Electrical and Microelectronic Engineering track.
Program Learning Outcomes
1.Identify, formulate, and solve various engineering problems by applying principles of mathematics, science, and engineering.
2.Apply engineering principles toward designing a system, part, or process to meet desired needs. This could include analyzing a problem, defining the criteria for success, developing a model or simulation, construction, and/or testing through implementation.
3.Communicate effectively through oral and written media.
4.Work effectively as part of a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
5.Develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgement to draw conclusions.
6.Develop technical skills, computational skills, and capability with engineering tools, including computer hardware and software, that are necessary for modern engineering practice.
