Associate in Engineering

The Wilkes Community College (WCC) Associate in Engineering (AE) degree is governed by the Uniform Articulation Agreement (UAA), an agreement between the UNC Baccalaureate Engineering Programs and the NC Community College System AE Programs. It applies to all NC Community Colleges that operate the AE program and to the UNC constituent institutions (East Carolina University, NC A&T, NCSU, UNC-Charlotte and Western Carolina).

A student who completes the AE with a GPA of at least 2.5 and a grade of C or better in the AE courses will have fulfilled the engineering program entry requirements, and all courses in the Universal General Education Transfer Component will transfer with course equivalency to fulfill General Education requirements for the BSE. These students will receive at least 60 semester hours of academic credit upon admission to a UNC institution.
