Program Description
This curriculum is designed to provide the first two
years of a four-year program leading to the award of
a BS in engineering. A student planning to transfer
to any baccalaureate degree granting institution
should follow the appropriate track listed below in
consultation with an engineering advisor. The
student should also visit the Montgomery College
Engineering Advising website
www.montgomerycollege.edu/engineeringadvising
for up-to-date comprehensive information on
transfer requirements for all universities and
colleges with which we have an articulated transfer
program.
Completion of all requirements for any track in
engineering science will lead to the award of the AS
in engineering science.
This track will prepare students to transfer to a four-
year university with a major in electrical
engineering. Specific requirements in colleges vary,
and the student preparing for a particular institution
may, with approval, change the sequence listed
below; this sequence of courses is articulated with
the electrical engineering program at the University
of Maryland, College Park. A suggested course
sequence for full-time students follows; all students
should consult an engineering adviser. The student
should also visit the Montgomery College
Engineering Advising website at
www.montgomerycollege.edu/engineeringadvising
for up-to-date comprehensive information.
Program Outcomes
Upon completion of this program a student will be
able to:
Identify, formulate, and solve basic physics and
engineering problems in mechanics and energy
system.
Analyze and design simple mechanical system
using analytical method(s).
Use appropriate computer application software
in mechanical engineering.

Advising Notes
Most engineering students will start at MC missing one or more pre-requisites for CHEM 131, CHEM 132, CHEM 135, ENGL
102, ENES 100, and MATH 181.
The appropriate initial chemistry courses will be determined by the student’s score on the Chemistry Placement Exam,
mathematics level, AP/IB credits, or transfer credits. Possible courses include CHEM 099, CHEM 131, CHEM 132, or
CHEM
135. Either CHEM 132 or CHEM 135 satisfies the required chemistry credit for UMCP. CHEM 131-CHEM 132 satisfies the
required chemistry credit for UMBC, but CHEM 135 does not.
The pre-requisite for ENGL 102 is ENGL 101 or ENGL 101A. English course placement is determined by the Accuplacer
English/Reading Test.
The co-requisite for ENES 100 is MATH 165 or higher.
The pre-requisite for MATH 181 is MATH 165 (Precalculus). Mathematics initial course placement will be determined by the
Accuplacer Math Test, AP/IB credit, or transfer credits.
ENES 240 (3) IS NOT required for the MC AS Mechanical Engineering degree, but is accepted as an equivalent to MATH 206
(1) and ENES 272 (2) at UMCP.
