Engineering Education
Students interested in engineering should take the following in high school: algebra I & II, trigonometry, biology, physics, social studies (3 units), fine arts/humanities (1-2 units), computer programming or applications, geometry, calculus, chemistry, English (4 units), foreign languages (2-3 units). Honors levels courses are recommended; even better are advanced placement courses. Combined scores of 1100 (SAT) or 20 (ACT) should be your goal. A bachelor's degree in engineering is available through: A four- or five-year accredited college or university program; Two years in a community college engineering transfer program plus two or three years in an engineering program; Three years in a science or mathematics major and two years in engineering; Five to six years in an engineering co-op program; or, Eight to ten years as an evening engineering student. For more information about engineering curricula and fields, check out our "Engineering & You" brochure or contact the Junior Engineering Technical Society. If you'd like a catalog of college engineering programs accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission, contact the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, Inc. at pubs@abet.ba.md.us.
