Students are strongly encouraged to complete the Associate in Engineering Science degree prior to transfer.  To transfer as a junior into a bachelor’s engineering program, students must complete a minimum of 60 semester hours up to a maximum of 68 hours, including all of the  essential prerequisite courses listed below. Students with fewer than 68 semester hours at transfer are not likely to earn the bachelor’s degree within two years after transfer.    Students admitted to the program must meet the state’s high school course requirements: 4 years English, 3 years in math, science, and social studies. A fourth year of math is  recommended. Students are advised that admission to senior institutions is highly competitive and that completion of the courses alone does not guarantee admission.    General Education Core Courses  General education courses are described in the Illinois General Education Core Curriculum. Since completion of this engineering curriculum does not fulfill the requirements of  the Illinois General Education Core Curriculum, students will need to complete the general education requirements of the institution to which they transfer.    *Students are encouraged to select at least one course in either the humanities/fine arts or the social/behavioral sciences that emphasizes non-Western cultures or  minority cultures within the United States. If two courses are selected in a field, a two-semester sequence in the same discipline is recommended.    COMMUNICATIONS: 6 semester hours required (2 courses)                    ESSENTIAL PREREQUISITE COURSES: 36 semester hours    Students must successfully complete courses with a grade of A, B, or C.
