GENERAL
Major Code: 090100
Plan B
(Emphasis on Transfer Preparation)
This program provides the student with the opportunity to
experience a broad introduction into the field of engineering
and aid in his or her selection of a specific area of specialization
within the broad spectrum of engineering. Though every effort
has been made to insure maximum transferability, it should be
recognized that each university may have special requirements.
(Please see a counselor for additional requirements for the
university). Below is a departmentally recommended sample
program which groups required major courses into four
semesters. As part of the degree program, students must
complete 18 units of General Education requirements from
Graduation Plan B and one course in Written Communications
(English 28 or higher) and meet the Mathematics competency
requirement.

FIRE TECHNOLOGY DEGREE AND
CERTIFICATE PROGRAM
ASSOCIATE IN SCIENCE DEGREE IN FIRE TECHNOLOGY
Major Code: 213300
Plan A
Students wanting a transfer major must see a counselor for
requirements. The Fire Technology Program is designed to
prepare persons for positions in the various branches of the
fire-fighting industry , to upgrade the competency of those
already employed in the field to qualify for promotion, and
to prepare individuals for employment in certain industrial
occupations. As of Fall 2012, the Fire Technology Program
follows the recommended State Curriculum devised by the
Chancellor’s Office of the California Community Colleges.
Students completing the Hazardous Materials course may
also be eligible for a State Certificate in that area. Courses
of study may be selected and scheduled in any order based
on course prerequisites, the available class schedule, and/
or academic and technical competencies. As part of the
degree program, students must complete 24
units of General Education requirements from
Graduation Plan A and meet college graduation
requirements in Written Communication and the
Mathematics competency requirement. Students
must have earned a “C” or better in the required Fire Tech
courses listed, as well as the other classes listed in the degree
or certificate electives.
