Completing the first two years of study at Chemeketa will save you thousands of dollars in tuition.
Chemeketa offers classes that closely follow the first two years of engineering study at many universities. We also have related classes in General Engineering that introduce the profession, tools and approach to problem solving.
We offer three General Engineering classes that introduce the field.
Introduction to the profession
Practice using a microcomputer, computer algebra system, code and programs
Begin using a systemic approach to solving engineering problems
