Students completing an AS degree in civil engineering develop abilities in mathematics,
basic sciences, engineering topics such as structural statics, as well as general
education subjects that complement technical content.
The Associate of Science degree is granted to students who have completed at least
12 semester units of the required 60-degree applicable semester units at Glendale
Community College. The required 60 semester units must include all of the following:
(1) Completion of the courses required in the major or area of emphasis with a grade
of “C” or better, or a “P” grade. (2) Completion of one of the following general education
patterns: GCC General Education Requirements or the California General Education Transfer
Curriculum (Cal-GETC) requirements. (3) A minimum GPA of 2.0 in the required 60 semester
units.
Program Learning Outcomes: Upon completion of this program, students will identify, formulate, and solve engineering
problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics; apply the
engineering design process to create engineering solutions that meet specified needs
that integrates consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global,
cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors; communicate technical information
effectively with a range of audiences; function effectively on a team whose members
together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish
goals, plan tasks, and meet technical objectives; and transfer to a bachelor's degree
program in order to finish preparing for a career in a specific discipline of civil
engineering.
