What are the options with Applied Pre-Engineering?
A normal pre-engineering program focuses exclusively on math and science preparation for students transferring to a 4-year engineering program. YC's unique Applied Pre-engineering program still prepares students for transfer like a normal pre-engineering program, but also allows students the opportunity to explore whether engineering is really for them before they decide to transfer to a university.
The Applied Pre-engineering degree helps students narrow down possible engineering paths by exposing them to a variety of engineering disciplines and gives them real-world experience in robotics, electronics, and modern manufacturing processes vital to being an effective engineer in the 21st century.
The Arizona General Education Curriculum (AGEC) is designed to fulfill all lower division General Education requirements at the public universities in Arizona. The AGEC-S is the appropriate curriculum for students who major in fields with stringent requirements in mathematics and science.
Upon completion of all requirements of the AGEC-S with a grade of "C" or higher, the student will receive recognition of completion on their Yavapai College transcript. Arizona residents who complete an AGEC-S and who have a cumulative GPA of 2.50 or higher have assured admission upon application to one of the state universities in Arizona.
The AGEC-S also fulfills general education requirements for the Associate of Science degree at Yavapai College. A minimum of twelve credit hours in the AGEC-S certificate must be completed at Yavapai College.
