ADVANCED TECHNOLOGICAL EDUCATION (ATE)
CORE OF STUDY: ATE Core of Study for Associate Degrees in Engineering Technology
ATE refers to the common first-year courses taken during the first three semesters of all two-year associate degree programs in Engineering Technology. The ATE courses integrate the first-year engineering technologies, applied science, technical mathematics and communication courses. These engineering technology courses are problem-based and focus on collaborative learning. For more information about the ATE program, please visit www.scate.org.
