ENGINEERING SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGIES

ADVANCED SCIENCE AND MATHEMATICS STUDIES (ASM) (HEGIS 5310)

Applied Academic Certificate

This certificate program, designed with SUNY New Paltz, prepares students with an AAS degree in Electrical Engineering Technology
from Dutchess Community College to enter at Junior level status in the Electrical or Computer Engineering programs at SUNY New Paltz. Students who have achieved a 2.5 GPA in the certificate program detailed below will be accepted directly in to the fifth semester of the eight semester engineering programs offered at New Paltz.

The objective of this joint venture is to provide the citizens/students of the Mid-Hudson Valley region a quality, cost effective, geographically convenient career path for those technology graduates who would like to proceed to an engineering degree.
The certificate program is geared towards students graduated from the AAS general electrical engineering technology (ELT) program.

The prerequisites for this certificate are:

1. AAS degree in ELT program, ELT 220 with a grade of C or better, and a grade of C or better in MAT 221 Analytic Geometry and
   Calculus I (5 year limit), or
2. greater than 3.0 GPA in AAS degree in ELT program, ELT 220 with grade of B or better and a grade of C or better in in MAT 221
   Analytic Geometry and Calculus I (5 year limit). Students considering this path should elect to take MAT 221 Analytic
   Geometry and Calculus I as their free elective while in the AAS ELT program.
