Engineering Fundamentals
You know what engineers do.
You know what engineering is and why it is important.
But what do you need to do to become an engineer?
The Lower Division Core
Physics
Calculus
Chemistry
Engineering
Lower Division courses are courses taken primarily in the first two years of college.
Physics Foundation
Physics 4A Engineering Physics – Mechanics
Physics 4B Engineering Physics – Electricity and Magnetism
Physics 4C Engineering Physics – Light and Heat
Physics 4D Engineering Physics – Atomic (and Modern Physics)
Math Foundation
Math 3A Calculus I
Math 3B Calculus II
Math 4A Intermediate Calculus
Math 4B Differential Equations
Math 4C Differential Equations
Prerequisites for Physics

Chemistry Foundation
Chem 1A General Chemistry
Chem 1B General Chemistry
Prerequisites for Chemistry
Math C (Intermediate Algebra) is required for Chem 1A
Chem 1A is required for Chem 1B
There is a linear sequence to math, chemistry, and physics
courses.
Math is used in all science courses because math is the language
used for solving science problems.
Engineering Foundation
Engr 10 Introduction to Engineering
Engr 23 Statics (Mechanics of static structures)
Engr 24(L) Intro to Circuit Analysis
Engr 25 Graphics
Engr 26 Materials
Engr 30 Computing (C++) for Engineers
Prerequisites for Engineering
Math 3B and Physics 4A are required for Engr 23
Math 3B and Physics 4B are required for Engr 24
Chem 1A, Physics 4A, and Math 3B are required for Engr 26
Note: A CIS course is an advisory for Engr30
How will you succeed?
Commitment
Supportive Family
Positive peer pressure
An environment conducive to studying
Having self-advocacy skills
Figuring out when you need to take certain classes.
Others?
Develop an Educational Plan for an engineering
student at Mission College.
Assume this student took Chemistry and Algebra II in
HS and received a B or better in both.
Wed.
Bring Mission College catalog and find catalog of 4-year college you wish to transfer to. Can use online catalog too.
