 Return to: School of IDEA: Programs, Degrees and Certificates
This degree program is designed to provide students with engineering courses which are equivalent to those offered during the first 2 years of standard university bachelor’s program. The degree structure and course listings have been designed to provide access to ten engineering courses which are typically encountered by students across all major engineering disciplines. The degree’s flexible structure will offer transfer students a clear pathway to university degree programs while giving career education students an opportunity to transition towards an engineering degree at any point in their educational career. Courses in the degree articulate to the University of California and California State University systems. The degree contains classes covering computer programming, statics, dynamics, materials science, network analysis, problem-solving with MATLAB, thermodynamics, and computer-aided design. Courses within the degree contain valuable laboratory driven content, which maintains a focus on the design, build, and test aspects of real-world engineering. This degree is part of the Engineering Academy with UC Irvine School of Engineering for the following majors: Aerospace, Biomedical, Biomedical Premed, Chemical, Civil, Computer, Electrical, Environmental, Materials Science and Mechanical. More information is available at https://atep.ivc.edu/academy.
Program Student Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this program, students will be able to:
- Transfer into a university-level engineering program across the majority of available fields, including mechanical, electrical, computer science, bio-medical, civil, and environmental engineering.
- Gain basic industry-standard technical experience in computer-aided design, analytical techniques, objective measurements, as well as the function of simple parts, structures, organic elements, and electro-mechanical devices, which will allow them to gain entry-level employment in engineering or other related fields.
- Gain a working knowledge of several industry-standard computer programs and have the skills to gain entry-level employment in an array of fields which utilize computer-aided design, computational programming, and analysis, or technical report writing.

Complete the core courses:
Total Units Required: 19-20
To transfer:
Courses required for the associate degree major at IVC may not be the same as those required for the major at a four-year school. If you plan to transfer, consult a counselor to identify the courses needed for the major at your transfer school and to develop a plan that will best meet your goals. View more information about transferring at Transfer to a Four-Year Institution .
Third-party credentialing:
Third-party credentialing may be subject to change without notice. This information is accurate as of the publication date of this catalog. For the most current information, please consult with the area dean.
