Des Moines Area Community College.

Pre-Engineering

Des Moines Area Community College’s Liberal Arts Associate of Arts and Associate of Science degrees provide the flexibility and opportunity to get a solid start on your four-year degree in Engineering while earning an associate degree.

The engineering field includes a wide range of opportunities for people who are mathematically and scientifically inclined. DMACC’s class sizes are often smaller than those at colleges and universities that offer engineering programs, providing a high level of support while building the foundation for your academic and professional career.
