About the Program
Based on a signed articulation agreement, Rogue Community College and Oregon Tech offer an Associate of Science degree for students who want to pursue a bachelor’s degree in manufacturing. This degree was developed as a cooperative venture between Oregon Tech and RCC and offers knowledge and application components drawn from curriculum at both institutions.
The Associate of Science degree transfers directly into the bachelor’s degree program at Oregon Tech in Manufacturing/Engineering Technology.
Students must work closely with their advisors to ensure transferability of this program. If students transfer before completing this degree or transfer in a major not covered by prior agreements, their courses will be evaluated individually toward the transfer requirements of the college of their choice. Students are advised to obtain written approval from Oregon Tech to guarantee their catalog of transfer for three years.
Program Learning Outcomes
The curriculum in RCC courses is derived from a set of identified learning outcomes that are relevant to the discipline. Program learning outcomes for the Manufacturing/Engineering Technology transfer to Oregon Tech are:
Set up and operate manual mills/lathes to print specifications.
Troubleshoot manufacturing processes and procedures.
Demonstrate the ability to adhere to personal and industry safety standards to protect personnel and equipment.
Operate and program CNC mills and lathes to print specifications.
Entry Requirements
Students are required to complete the Placement Process to determine skill level and readiness in math, reading, and writing. As part of their training program, students must begin with the courses within their skill level as determined through the Placement Process.
Advanced Standing
Coursework from accredited universities will be accepted in accordance with college policies. In order to ensure that coursework is current, program courses over four years old must be reviewed and approved by the appropriate Department Chair before being accepted toward core requirements.
Graduation Requirements
The Associate of Science degree will be awarded to students who complete all credits in this program with a grade of “C-” or better. Certain required courses are graded on a pass/no pass basis only. A grade of “P” for these courses indicates a student earned the equivalent of a “C-” or better grade.
This guide lays out an optimal path to graduate. Where zero credits are listed in the prerequisites, students may place into a higher level(s) based on designated placement. Note: some prerequisites may be required for graduation. Please consult an advisor with any program completion questions.
