Additional Information for Transferring Students

• Students are encouraged to take two additional 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.
