Community college students are strongly encouraged to complete an Associate in Engineering Science degree prior to transferring to a four-year institution in engineering.

To transfer as a junior into a baccalaureate engineering program, students must complete a minimum of 60 semester credit hours to a maximum of 68 semester credit hours, including all of the essential prerequisite courses. Students with fewer than 68 semester credit hours at transfer are unlikely to complete the baccalaureate degree within two years after transfer. Since admission is highly competitive, completion of the suggested courses does not guarantee admission.

The A.E.S. degree requires a minimum of 60 credit hours. The A.E.S. degree also requires that students complete 9 hours of general education credit hours in communications (ENG 101 and 102 required), humanities/fine arts (0 to 9 hours), and social/behavioral sciences (0 to 9 hours). If students need credits to reach to 60 hour minimum, they are advised to take general education courses in communication, humanities/fine arts, and social/behavioral sciences. Students are encouraged to select at least one course in either the humanities/fine arts or the social 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.

Students should plan their transfer programs with a counselor/advisor and the catalog of the four-year college or university they plan to attend.  See the Illinois Articulation Initiative website http://www.itransfer.org for general transfer guidance.

Completion of the A.E.S. degree does not guarantee students the benefits of the “articulation compact program,” which is available at several state universities for students who earn the A.A. or A.S. degree.

Engineering students are advised to consider completion of the general education core prior to transferring.

Program Notes*
• For students planning to transfer to the University of Illinois: PHY 143 is not required for the A.E.S. degree but is required to transfer to the U of I College of Engineering. CHE 102 is not required for transfer to ECE at U of I. (CHE 102 is required for the chemical engineering A.E.S.)
• CSC 127 satisfies IAI EGR 922 requirements for non-UIUC transfer students.
• For current UIUC ECE information, see www.ece.uiuc.edu/prospective/transfer/guidelines.html. Consider taking ECE 110 and ECE 190 sequentially on a Parkland-UIUC concurrent enrollment basis.
• Mechanical Engineering at U of I requires ME170 rather than GE101 which is equivalent to Parkland ENS101.
