Pathway Agreement

Maricopa Community College District
Electrical Engineering (Electric Power and Energy Systems), BSE Pathway
2021-2022
Pathway Notes
Minimum 2.0 GPA in coursework used to satisfy MAPP requirements. All courses must be completed with a grade of C or greater. Some ASU programs may have higher GPA and grade requirements. Please see special requirements below for details.
Special Requirements

The recommended MCCCD associate degree pathway and Arizona General Education Certificate (AGEC) for this major is the Associate in Science, Emphasis in Engineering degree and AGEC-S. Completion of the MAPP and all special requirements meets major map requirements at ASU and guarantees admission to the Electrical Engineering, BSE degree program. 

MAPP students must have an associate degree in progress or a completed associate degree posted on their transcript when applying for admission or they will be held to regular admission procedures and will not receive MAPP benefits. A maximum of 64 credit hours will transfer to Arizona State University. All transfer courses must be completed with a grade of "C" or better.  

Admission Notes:

In addition to university requirements, the Fulton School of Engineering requires that students must complete the MAPP requirements and meet the primary or secondary admission requirements to gain admission to the Electrical Engineering and Electrical Engineering (Electric and Power Systems) BSE degree programs. Note that Arizona State University calculates GPA's differently than the Maricopa Community College District, thus guaranteed admission to the Electrical Engineering, BSE degree program is dependent upon meeting primary or secondary admission criteria outlined below. 

Primary Criteria: Minimum transfer GPA of 3.00 as calculated by ASU for admission for 24 or more transfer hours

Secondary Criteria: Minimum transfer GPA of 2.50 as calculated by ASU for admission for 24 or more transfer hours and a minimum GPA of 2.75 in all critical tracking courses in terms 1 and 2 (MAT 265, 266, PHY 121 and PHY 122).

Additional Note:  Students interested in completing the BSE Electrical Engineering (Electric Power and Energy Systems) degree with two additional years at ASU are strongly encouraged to contact the ECEE Advising Office at 480-965-3424 to meet with an academic advisor upon enrollment into a MAPP program at the community college to work on their degree plan.
