Because of the strong emphasis on science in this major, applicants must have successfully completed Chemistry and Biology in high school. Students who did not complete the courses in high school, and those who prefer to refresh their knowledge of the material, should complete the listed pre-requisites.
- 2
A student may take MTH125 College Algebra and MTH130 Trigonometry over two semesters to satisfy this requirement.
- 2
Students who test directly into Analytical Geometry and Calculus I should contact the Math Department Chair for the possibility of receiving credit for Precalculus.
Full-time Student Advising Notes
Academic Advising
Students should make an appointment to see their advisor before registering for classes each semester. They should have prepared a completed registration form, including courses they wish to take, prior to this meeting.
Course Sequence
The semester-by-semester listing below provides the normal scheduling option for full-time associate degree students who plan to finish in two years.
Elective Additional Credit
Bridge courses that can be taken at Stark State College, prior to attending the University of Akron, that apply towards the University of Akron BS Degree:
| Code | Title | Hours |
|---|---|---|
| COM121 | Effective Speaking | 3 |
| ENG221 | Technical Report Writing | 3 |
| PHY222 | General Physics II with Calculus | 5 |
| MTH227 | Ordinary Differential Equations | 3 |

If you plan on taking additional courses at Stark State College beyond this list, we recommend you verify transferability with a University of Akron advisor prior to taking the course. Self-selection of courses and not following the approved degree program could adversely affect graduation, transfer to a 4-year institution, and financial aid. Visit Transferology at http://www.transferology.com to assist in developing a plan for transferring to another college or university. Students should select Ohio Transfer 36 approved and TAG approved courses.
Bachelor’s Degree
Bachelor’s degree requirements and course transferability are controlled by the institution to which the student plans to transfer. Contact the University of Akron’s Transfer Student Services Center (330-972-7009) during the first semester to discuss junior year Stark State College Associate of Science pre-engineering transition strategies to the University of Akron’s Engineering BS programs.
