Engineering at Collin

Collin College provides general academic courses and electives for students who plan to transfer to a college or university. Because of the various transfer requirements at colleges and universities, and to ensure enrollment in appropriate courses, students should verify course transferability and degree applicability with a Collin College academic advisor and/or the college or university that they plan to attend.

To earn an associate degree, complete the 42 credit hour General Education Core, and 18 credit hours of general studies electives and the Associate of Arts (AA) or Associate of Science (AS) degree requirements.

Check with your transfer institution before registering for general studies electives to make sure your courses will be degree applicable to your bachelor's degree at the transfer institution.

Build a foundation in the mathematics and sciences which are the basis of all engineering. Collin College's engineering field of study (FOS) programs are great preparation for a Bachelor of Science program in several disciplines within the school of engineering at a college or university.

Collin College offers three engineering tracks: civil engineering, electrical engineering and mechanical engineering. While they share much of the foundational material, each discipline has its own specialty. Explore the disciplines below and determine which suits your goals best.
