Engineering Program at EAC

Today’s professional engineers require a minimum of four years of highly theoretical and specialized training. At Eastern Arizona, we’ve designed our engineering curriculum to dovetail perfectly with Arizona’s three major universities, maximizing the credits you can transfer. EA’s Associate of Science in Engineering meets the requirements for the first two years of a four-year bachelor’s program. You can transfer with junior status after building a strong academic foundation in the needed math and science.

At EA, you’ll engage in small, stimulating classes taught by quality faculty and offered at an extremely affordable tuition cost. You are encouraged to work closely with EA Engineering faculty and Counseling to develop an effective schedule for taking these courses prior to transfer.
