This curriculum is designed for students wanting to pursue a bachelor's degree in engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. The University of Illinois requires specific minimum GPAs for entry into the various majors of engineering. Consult an academic advisor at the University of Illinois for important program-specific information.
The associate in engineering science degree requires the completion of 63 credit hours. The University of Illinois highly encourages students to apply through their Engineering Pathways program during their senior year of high school for a streamlined transfer experience and guaranteed admission into Grainger College of Engineering. This program is designed for students who plan to start at Lake Land College in the AES major and transfer to the University of Illinois.
Only courses with a course number of 100 or higher meet graduation requirements for the AES degree.
The Illinois Articulation Initiative recommends that transfer students take two humanities/fine arts courses from the same course sequence. Those courses are not planned into the curriculum below but can be taken. The University of Illinois allows you to take those courses at the university or the community college.
This program follows Math Pathway #4. Math requirements for a specific major may vary from one institution to another. Please consult with an academic counselor or academic advisor to confirm the pathway that is applicable to your major and transfer institution.
Students will study the writing process by reading essays illustrating a variety of rhetorical strategies, analyzing texts and writing, revising and editing short essays. Course is for students who have assessed into developmental English, receiving supplemental instruction for course completion.
Students develop a writing process by reading and analyzing texts that illustrate various rhetorical strategies as well as writing, revising and editing short essays. Minimally, students must compose four formal, revised writing assignments, having one reach at least 1,250 words.
Introduction to an object-oriented programming language using a disciplined approach to problem-solving, algorithm development as well as procedural and data abstraction. Covers selection, repetition, sequence control structures, program design, records and files, testing and documentation.
Differential and integral calculus of elementary functions of one variable, such as polynomial, rational, radical, trigonometric, inverse trigonometric, exponential and logarithmic functions, will be covered. Applications include rates of change, optimization, curve sketching and area. A graphing calculator is required. Ask instructor for calculator recommendations.
General principles of chemistry for students majoring in chemistry, engineering or science professions. Topics include atomic theory, bonding, stoichiometry, gas laws and thermochemistry.
A continuation of Calculus I with emphasis on different methods of integration and applications, L`Hôpitals Rule, sequences, series, power series, Taylor series and Maclaurin series. A graphing calculator is required.
This is a study of Newtonian Mechanics. The course is for physics majors and minors, engineering students and the mathematically oriented student. This is the first of a three-course sequence.
Continuation of the general principles of chemistry for students majoring in chemistry, engineering or science professions. Topics include solids/liquids, solutions, kinetics, equilibrium, thermodynamics and electrochemistry.
Focuses on the nature and method of economics, basic supply and demand analysis, national income accounting, business cycles, inflation and unemployment, fiscal policy, money and banking and monetary policy.
A continuation of analytic geometry and calculus II. The focus is on solid analytic geometry, vectors, partial derivatives, line, volume and surface integrals in various coordinate systems and vector fields. A graphing calculator is required. Ask instructor for calculator recommendations.
Focuses on free enterprise and the economic functions of government, advanced supply and demand analysis, pricing in competitive/non-competitive markets and pricing in resource markets.
A first course in linear algebra covering linear systems, matrices, determinants, vector spaces, inner product spaces and eigenvalues and eigenvectors, including proofs of theorems and propositions in each topic.
This course is the study of the relationship between the external loadings on a deformable object and the resulting deformations and internal stresses and strains.
This course provides an introduction to engineering graphics and design through the use of traditional drafting standards and modern CAD software. Topics include graphical communication, spatial visualization, orthographic projection, dimensioning, tolerancing and 3D parametric modeling. Students will learn to interpret and create technical drawings used in the engineering design process.
