General Career Information

Engineering is the application of sciences and mathematics to making things for people.

An excellent introduction to what engineering is, what engineers do, the educational requirements, career opportunities and links to sources of additional information about engineering as a choice of major are provided the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE).

The Bureau of Labor Statistics maintains detailed and current information on engineering careers.

Transfer Institutions

The Georgia Institute of Technology maintains a web site that provides information for transfer students. If you are interested in Georgia Tech, you should become very familiar with the site. Keys items:

Recommended Curriculum:

The completion of courses required for transfer in engineering depends very strongly on the proper selection and sequencing of courses. While the choices provided in Areas A-E of the Core Curriculum are valid for all students, there are some special requirements for engineering students and all choices are not equal in terms of transfer requirements or optimum sequencing order.

The recommended engineering curriculum complies with the approved Areas A-E for the core. You should note that engineering students do not receive degree credit in the core for any mathematics course at a level lower than Calculus I (MATH 1501). If mathematics courses at levels lower than Calculus I are required, the transfer program in Engineering cannot be finished in four semesters - summer terms and/or additional semesters will be required.

To increase the probability of acceptance at transfer schools, the Principles of Chemistry sequence rather than the Principles of Biology sequence should be taken in Area D. Additionally, engineering students must take the second course in calculus (MATH 2502) in Area D, if not taken in Area A.

The recommended curriculum for the transfer program in Engineering is provided by the following link:

For students who took courses under the quarter system, the following link shows quarter system course equivalents for the transfer program in Engineering.

Course Sequencing:

Because of the strong prerequisite dependencies for the required mathematics and engineering courses, it is absolutely mandatory that mathematics coursework begin in the first semester of attendance. Students who were undecided and failed to begin mathematics in their first terms cannot complete the transfer program in engineering in four semesters - summer terms and/or additional semesters will be required.

Use this link to obtain a recommended sequence of courses in the transfer program in engineering.
