海角视频 has relaunched its Associate of Science in Engineering degree鈥攁nd now, qualified students entering the program will be guaranteed admission into Andrews University鈥檚 Bachelor of Science in Engineering program through a newly signed Guaranteed Admission Agreement.

This agreement ensures that eligible PUC engineering students will be accepted into AU鈥檚 BSE program. To support this partnership, PUC has designed a curriculum that fulfills AU鈥檚 transfer requirements, including foundational coursework in engineering, mathematics, and physics.

鈥淭he agreement with AU means a guaranteed pathway for our students to complete a bachelor鈥檚 degree in engineering within the Adventist school system,鈥� said James Robertson, chair of PUC鈥檚 mathematics and physics department. 鈥淎dditionally, it will allow West Coast students to start their college experience closer to home and with friends, then complete their program at Andrews.鈥�

The engineering program, relaunching in Fall 2025, was reintroduced at PUC to meet student demand and provide an accessible and mission-aligned entry point into the field. Students benefit from small class sizes and a supportive learning environment tailored to the rigorous demands of STEM education.

鈥淥ur program has a long history of successfully preparing engineering students,鈥� Robertson added. 鈥淭he first two years of any engineering program can be difficult, so our faculty employ strategies to actively support students. This tailored approach helps make our students highly successful.鈥�

To be eligible for guaranteed admission, PUC students must meet specific academic and non-academic requirements, including maintaining a minimum GPA of 3.0 in prerequisite courses, complying with AU鈥檚 conduct policies, consulting with AU academic advisors early in their PUC studies to ensure proper course alignment, and completing the AS in Engineering at PUC.

鈥淏y having the agreement, students are attracted to our program knowing there is a clearly defined pathway to completing the degree in four years, without the complications of transferring credits between institutions,鈥� Robertson said.

To ensure ongoing collaboration, PUC and AU will work together each year to coordinate transfer cohort sizes and review the agreement, making adjustments, as needed, to best support student success.

鈥淚鈥檓 excited for the return of engineering to PUC and the students it will bring,鈥� Robertson concluded.
