Our Engineering Program: Engineering 0901

For many years Tyler Junior College has provided a two-year currriculum leading to an Associate in Arts degree with concentration in engineering. This program includes an introduction to engineering, engineering graphics, computer language for engineers, engineering statics and dynamics, calculus, differential equations, calculus-based physics, and general education courses required for both an Associates and a Bachelor of Science degree.

A student majoring in engineering should see a Tyler Junior College faculty advisor for help in completing a course plan.

The engineering program at Tyler Junior College is designed to meet the needs of the first two years of a four- or five-year engineering degree program.
In order for a student to follow a four-year program for a degree in engineering, it is desirable that the student take Calculus I with analytic geometry (Mathematics 2313) the first semester of the freshman year.

It is recommended that all engineering majors, except those with an unusually strong background in high school mathematics, take precalculus (Mathematics 2412) during the summer prior to the first semester of the freshman year. This should be done to provide an adequate background for calculus with analytic geometry.
A grade of "C" or better must be earned in order to continue in sequential mathematics courses.
