Suggested Schedule for Microelectronics (ACU)even elect to have conferred upon you the BA from ACU
in addition to the engineering degree. Also, if you decide
to remain at ACU after having been in the pre-engineering
program for some time, you will be able to fit all of your
course work into the engineering physics degree program.
We have a program designed to fit your needs and desires
for future employment.

PRE-ENGINEERING PROGRAM
If you decide to obtain a traditional engineering degree
and yet desire to attend ACU, we can serve your needs.
We can provide you with two or three years of quality
pre-engineering study in our classrooms and laboratories.
After you complete this program of study, you can
transfer to an engineering school of your choice. You mayJunior Year

COURSE DESCRIPTIONS
The numbers following course titles indicate (1) hours of
lecture per week, (2) hours of laboratory per week, and
(3) semester credit hours. An asterisk following these three
figures indicates that the course carries variable or
alternative credit and that the figures represent the
maximum variation. In general, credit hours for these
courses may range from one to the number indicated.
Note that some courses are offered less than once a year.
Failure to complete these courses when they are offered
may delay graduation.
