Associate in Engineering Science Degree (AES)

Though this degree meets the General Education Core Curriculum (GECC) for the Illinois Articulation Initiative (IAI), it does not qualify for the compact benefits of an Associate of Arts or Associate of Science degree. Please meet with an IVCC counselor to see how this might impact your transfer.

General Education Guide Sheet

The Associate in Engineering Science degree requires completion of 64 credit hours including the general education requirements listed below with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 on a 4.0 scale. It is the student's responsibility to study carefully the catalog of the institution to which they plan to transfer so the choice of courses in their major field of study will apply toward fulfillment of the baccalaureate degree graduation requirement. All requirements on this guide sheet must be met to receive the degree. To determine appropriate courses, meet with a counselor.
