DESCRIPTION:
A program designed to teach the student the necessary skills required to serve as an assistant supporting professional engineers and/or scientists in the design and development of the many new products made possible by the rapid changes in technology.

This program is accredited by the Technology Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, 111 Market Place, Suite 1050, Baltimore, MD 21202-4012 – telephone (410) 347-7700.

BEGINNING SEMESTERS:
Students may enter the program any semester; however, the Fall Semester provides optimum availability of courses for full-time day students.

CAMPUS: BELTLINE

PLACEMENT TEST SCORES REQUIRED TO ENROLL IN CURRICULUM COURSES:  

REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION TO PROGRAM:
COMPASS scores of: Writing Sample 30 Reading 80 + Pre-Algrbra 44+ Algebra 76 +	OR	ASSET scores of: Writing Sample 30 Reading 40+ Numerical 40 + Elementary Algebra 48 + Intermediate Algebra 40 +

GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS:

A minimum of 75 semester hours and a GPA of at least 2.0 is required for graduation.
In addition to college graduation requirements, students must earn a cumulative grade of “C” or better in all courses offered in the Engineering Technology and Engineering Transfer Department to be eligible for graduation.  

PROGRAM NOTES:

1. Students are required to purchase a graphing calculator and a digital multimeter. By the fourth semester students are required to purchase a small set of hand tools.
2. A basic knowledge of algebra is recommended.
3. Color blindness, while not eliminating the student from entering the program, may cause problems with identification of color coded electronics components.
4. Students with a physical handicap should inform the department head or their departmental advisor of the type handicap and seek advice on the impact the disability may have in the student's field.
5. It is suggested that the student discuss their selected field of study and their expectations of the area with the department head or a departmental advisor.
6. Students who are enrolled in MAT-101 are not eligible to take EET-113 (PREREQUISITES: MAT 102; COREQUISITE: MAT 110).
7. Transfer credit for both electronics and non-electronics courses is determined by the department head.
8. Evening courses will begin once a year, in the Fall semester, and continue in a logical prerequisite sequence until completion as long as student demand is sufficient.
9. Failure to follow the course sequence as offered or failure to meet the prerequisite for an offered course may necessitate the postponement of that course for at least 1 semester (4 months) and take the student out of the course sequence being followed by his or her entry group. Students could wait up to 1 year before the course sequence starts over.
10. Elective courses are to be chosen in consultation with the student's academic advisor. Prerequisites or corequisites must be met before any course can be taken.
11. If student is eligible to enroll in MAT 101 or higher call the Department Secretary for an advisement appointment at 738-7752.

COLLEGE TRANSFER INFORMATION:

1. Students may select ENG 102 as their second English course for transfer credit instead of ENG 165.
2. Students who need to take college transfer physics should select PHY 221
   University Physics I instead of PHY 201 Physics I .
