Dallas College and Texas A&M University Partnership Enhances Engineering Transfer Pathways
Dallas College has announced a streamlined transfer agreement with Texas A&M University (College Station) designed to facilitate the seamless transition of students pursuing Associate of Science degrees in engineering. This initiative ensures that students completing specific coursework at Dallas College will have their credits fully recognized by Texas A&M’s engineering programs.
Under the new agreement, students can fulfill degree requirements by selecting from a defined set of courses. For foundational engineering knowledge, students must choose either ENGR 1172, Introduction to Experimental Techniques, or ENGR 2105, Electrical Circuits I Laboratory. further specialization is offered through a choice between ENGR 2106, Introduction to Digital Systems Laboratory, and ENGR 2110, Introduction to Digital Systems Laboratory. Advanced studies in electrical circuits are covered by ENGR 2305, Electric Circuits I, while digital systems are addressed in ENGR 2306, Introduction to Digital Systems, or ENGR 2310, Introduction to Digital Systems. Additionally, students are required to complete MATH 2414, Calculus II.
A key component of this agreement emphasizes careful course selection to maximize transferability. students are instructed to select only one course from each of the following pairs: ENGR 2105 or ENGR 1172; ENGR 2106 or ENGR 2110; and ENGR 2306 or ENGR 2310. Taking both courses within a pair will result in only one being accepted for transfer credit at Texas A&M University (College Station).
The Associate of Science degree program at Dallas College totals 60 credit hours. This extensive agreement ensures that all 60 credit hours are transferable to Texas A&M University (College Station) for students who adhere to the specified course selection guidelines, providing a clear and efficient path for aspiring engineers.
