Engineering Science, A.S.

The Engineering Science associate degree (A.S.) program at SUNY Niagara will prepare students to transfer to a four-year college or university to pursue a baccalaureate degree in engineering. This program includes those courses required in the first two years of a typical baccalaureate degree program in engineering. These courses are of an applied physics nature and include coursework in Statics, Dynamics, Mechanical Properties of Materials, etc. This program fulfills the academic needs in such areas as mathematics, physics, and chemistry, in support of engineering coursework, thus enabling students to transfer seamlessly.

As currently structured, this program will meet all requirements for seamless transfer into SUNY and other 4-year engineering programs. This includes SUNY at Buffalo Aerospace, Mechanical, Civil & Environmental engineering. With some course substitutions, it will also meet requirements for seamless transfer into Chemical, Biomedical, Computer, or Industrial Engineering. Chemical and Biomedical engineering students should enroll in the Environmental track.

Students interested in electrical engineering will have the option of completing the bulk of their required coursework within this program in conjunction with the selection of appropriate course electives at SUNY Niagara and cross-registration at a four-year campus.
