Career Opportunities: Pre Engineering Associate of Science: Job titles such as Electrical & Electronics Engineering Technician, Engineering Technician, and Mechanical Engineering Technician are attainable upon completion of this course of study. To learn more from a career specialist, visit the Office of Career Services at either campus or explore online at Pre Engineering Certificate: Job titles such as Engineering Technician and Industrial Machinery Mechanics are attainable upon completion of this course of study. To learn more from a career specialist, visit the Office of Career Services at either campus or explore online at Transfer Pathways: Students intending to transfer and complete a bachelor s degree need to make early decisions concerning an academic major and a transfer destination. Statistics show that students who make these decisions early are more likely to persist to graduation than their undecided counterparts. Students planning to transfer credits earned at Macomb are strongly urged to see a counselor or academic advisor as early as possible in their college careers. 8 Transfer Resource Guide 1
