Pathway Agreement

Maricopa Community College District
Mechanical Engineering (Computational Mechanics), 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 Mechanical Engineering (Computational Mechanics), BSE degree program.

In addition to university requirements, the Fulton School of Engineering requires that students must complete the MAPP with a 3.0 cumulative transfer GPA. Note that Arizona State University calculates GPA differently than the Maricopa Community College District, thus guaranteed admission to the Mechanical Engineering (Computational Mechanics), BSE degree program is dependent upon calculation of the 3.0 cumulative transfer GPA. Also, 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.

Students interested in completing the BSE Mechanical Engineering (Computational Mechanics) degree with two additional years at ASU, must complete MAE 241 (Intro to Thermodynamics) and MAE 384 through concurrent enrollment or in the summer prior to admission. Students are strongly encouraged to contact the SEMTE Advising Office at (480) 965-2335 to meet with an academic advisor upon enrollment into a MAPP at the community college.
