ASSOCIATE IN SCIENCE
Concentration in Engineering

Engineers design the technology that serves modern society. In addition they design operational procedures by which such technology should be used.

The Physical Sciences Division of Texarkana College offers the first two years of a curriculum leading to a baccalaureate degree in engineering. Texarkana College courses in engineering are accepted at major regional engineering schools, and transferring engineering students have traditionally performed as well as or better than students starting at those institutions.

The following is a suggested course of study which will satisfy the requirements for this Associate of Science degree at Texarkana College.
