A Course of Study for ENGINEERING - Transfer Engineers apply the theories and principles of science and mathematics to research and develop economical solutions to practical technical problems. Their work is the link between scientific discoveries and commercial applications. Engineers design products, the machinery to build those products, the factories in which those products are made, and the systems that ensure the quality of the product and efficiency of the workforce and manufacturing process. There are a variety of engineering fields: electrical, mechanical, civil, industrial, aeronautical, chemical, materials, nuclear, petroleum and mining engineering. For additional career possibilities, visit the Career Services Center on the main campus to utilize computerized career information systems and other valuable career resources. TRANSFR IGETC is NOT Recommended. Students planning to transfer to a four-year college should complete the lower-division major requirements and the general education pattern for the appropriate transfer institution. Santa Monica College has articulation agreements for this major with the following UC, CSU, and private institutions. Exact major requirements for these and other UC and CSU campuses can be found online at www.assist.org. Articulation agreements with private and out-of-state institutions can be found online at www.smc.edu/articulation. Admission to Engineering programs is very competitive. Students should complete all lower division requirements prior to transfer to be competitive for admission. Additionally, to be minimally eligible to transfer to a UC campus, transfer students must complete four (4) General Educational courses chosen from at least two of the following areas: Arts and Humanities; Social and Behavioral Sciences; Physical and Biological Science and two composition courses. Please see a Santa Monica College counselor for additional information. The following universities offer engineering degrees in the following majors. Check www.assist.org for exact course requirements. ASSIST ASSIST.org is a student-transfer information system that shows how course credits earned at Santa Monica College can be applied when transferred to a University of California (UC) or California State University (CSU). ASSIST.org is the official repository of articulation for California s public colleges and universities and provides the most accurate and up-to-date information about major requirements and general education. Along with meeting minimum admission requirements, one of the most important aspects of a successful transfer is the completion of significant coursework in the major prior to transfer, for two very specific reasons. One, completion of major coursework makes you more attractive for admission, especially for the more competitive universities. Two, completion of major coursework at SMC prior to transfer will allow you to transfer and graduate from the university in a timelier manner. Assist.org has listed the exact courses that you should complete at SMC to satisfy lower-division major requirements prior to transfer to public California universities, but not all majors at all universities are included at this site.
