Provider Henry Ford Community College
Date of last update 12/12/2008
Description The Associate in Science degree in Pre-Engineering program provides the first two years of a student's engineering education. Articulation agreements guarantee admission to the final two years of engineering school at several universities to students who satisfactorily complete the Associate in Science in Pre-Engineering at HFCC. These articulation agreements also maximize the transferability of your HFCC coursework. Although the core engineering curriculum is fairly standard among accredited engineering schools, students should consult with the engineering advisor to determine which courses they should take, depending on the engineering discipline and the engineering school to which they will transfer. HFCC offers the courses common in the first two years of an ABET-accredited engineering program, and works closely with the faculty at local engineering schools to make sure your courses will transfer. The elective courses required for the various fields of engineering may vary slightly, and you should check with an engineering advisor to make sure that you are taking the correct series of courses for your intended field of engineering. Although the minimum requirement for completing the program is 60 credit hours, students may be able to take additional coursework at HFCC and transfer it to the 4-year institution. NOTE: In-district tuition applies to Dearborn School District residents only. Out-of-district tuition for this program is $6,900. Additional fees may apply.

Course Length 60 Credit Hours
Admission Requirements GED or High School Diploma. Requirements for different fields of engineering and schools vary. Students must consult with an engineering advisor to plan an appropriate course of study for the area of engineering and the college or university to which they intend to transfer. The minimum requirement for earning the Associate in Science degree in Pre-Engineering is 60 credit hours. However, engineering schools will accept as many as seven additional courses from HFCC transfer students toward Bachelor of Science degrees in engineering. We encourage students to take advantage of this and to complete as many courses as they can transfer at HFCC.
