AA/AS in Computer Engineering

The Computer Engineering associate degree prepares students to move into an accredited engineering curriculum and count most of their credits toward a bachelor's degree in engineering. The program supplies a solid foundation in engineering principles, with strong coursework in mathematics, basic sciences and engineering fundamentals, together with liberal arts courses that most bachelor's programs accept. Entry requires readiness for calculus, shown by a placement examination or by completing pre-calculus. The computer concentration also expects students to have finished an introductory programming course. The program can be completed at the Knight campus in Warwick. The Physics and Engineering Department webpage lists current program changes and updates. Prospective students should review the full catalog entry for the complete course list, sequence and any prerequisite requirements before planning their schedule at the Community College of Rhode Island.
