Electrical Engineering UC Pathway

Overview

The Associate of Science in Electrical Engineering is offered to prepare students to transfer a school in the University of California system as an Electrical Engineering major. This program will enable students to develop a strong foundational understanding in engineering, physics and mathematics that will be essential as they continue on the engineering pathway. In addition, students will benefit from hands-on laboratory experiences in their engineering and science courses allowing them to learn by doing. The LPC Electrical Engineering degree is intended for transfer to the University of California system. Students are encouraged to meet with a counselor early on and refer to the catalog of the prospective transfer institution to determine specific major requirements required for transfer since they can vary from university to university. Finally, because this program is a high-unit major, counselors can also assist in determining appropriate general education courses to complete the degree requirements. If interested in transferring to a CSU or other university not in the UC system as an Electrical Engineering major, please see the Associate of Science in Electrical Engineering.

Program Learning Outcome(s)

Upon completion of this program, students will be able to:

1. Apply fundamental principles from mathematics, science and engineering to solve a mechanical engineering-related problem.
2. Set up appropriate laboratory equipment, collect and analyze mechanical engineering data, draw conclusions, and clearly communicate results.
3. Use a variety of technological tools to solve mechanical engineering problems.
