All electrical engineering majors who are required to take Learning Support must also complete MSCC 1300 First-Year Experience , and the degree program will require 70 credit hours.

Additional Information

*Students are encouraged to take two courses, Circuits II and Digital Design, before transferring to a university.

Courses in engineering technology do not fulfill any of the requirements for the Area of Emphasis in Electrical Engineering.

Although it is possible to complete the B.S. Degree in Electrical Engineering in four semesters after earning the associate’s degree, students typically need five or six semesters to complete requirements.

Tennessee Technology University is now requiring  Electrical Engineering students to have a C or higher in all engineering courses. All students should contact their transfer institution to ensure all university specific requirements are met.
