Program Description

The Pre-Engineering ephasis is offered for students who wish to pursue a career in engineering. Algebra and Trigonometry are important for students majoring in a pre-engineering program. Students need to have an adequate high school preparation in mathematics and sciences. The lower division curriculum is recommended for students transferring to a four-year university. Requirements will vary somewhat within the specialty fields and choice of professional schools.

Students who plan to pursue a career in engineering may obtain the first two years of their degree at Northland and then transfer to a college of engineering. A student’s educational background, type of engineering and choice of transfer institution must be considered when selecting courses.

A student planning a professional career in engineering should consult his/her advisor prior to registration. In general, engineering schools require a common basic curriculum including chemistry, humanities, mathematics, physics, and social sciences.
