TESC Retired Engineering Tech Degrees - hahtjh - 07-23-2012
My 11th grade son has been working on his CLEPS the past year and was all set to shoot for a degree in Mechanical or Manufacturing Engineering Technical Degree at TESC. Today, we found out that they have retired both degrees. What a frustration, as now we're heading back to the drawing board. Does TESC retire degrees often? If so, then how can one plan and count on it? They did mention that their Learner Designed Area of Study might be an option but frankly do not understand how that works - can someone explain? Also, do you know if any of the Big 3 offer anything close? As far as I can tell, Excelsior has an electrical engineering degree but not manufacturing or mechanical tech degrees. Thanks for any help you can offer.

I know Excelsior has an Aviation Tech and a Nuclear Tech AAS degree for people who did those jobs in the military
all the pdfs at excelsior seem to be broken right now so I can't look to see what else they have

I don't think Excelsior has offered aviation degrees in quite some time. I searched again before responding, but could not find one.
And Mech Eng Tech is only available at a handful of places.
These all require some % of credits to be taken with their classes. ODU for sure requires up to 50%.

Closest you might get from EC is BS in Tech - Electro Mechanical

That's the one downside to working toward your degree without matriculating.
