My tentative schedule for next semester

 Spring Semester Education Plan – Electrical Engineering


Core Courses (12-15 credits)


1. intro to engineering (3-4 credits)

• Fundamental concepts in thermodynamics with applications to automotive systems.

• OR, focus on the principles of engineering.

2. Chemistry and or physics (3 credits)

• Study of motion, forces, and energy in performance, handling, and quality.

Math/Science Support Courses (3-4 credits)


5. Applied Differential Equations or Advanced Mathematics for Engineers (3-4 credits)

• Emphasis on solving real-world engineering problems.

6. Materials Science for Engineers (3 credits)

• Understanding the properties of materials used in engineering. 


Lab/Practical Experience (1-2 credits)


7. Engineering Lab or Workshop (1-2 credits)

• Hands-on experience with diagnostic tools.

General Education or Electives (3-6 credits)


8. Public speaking skills (3 credits)

• Develop skills for creating technical reports and presentations.

9. Ethnic studies for Hispanic and chicano (3 credits) (Optional Elective)

I am going to apply for financial aid but at the moment I have some personal problems that are keeping me from applying and doing the paperwork for it but I have an extension and have talked to the Los Rios administration. All my classes are ready for registration on December 22nd at 2:00pm.


Backup Schedule – Electives and Support Classes (Spring Semester)

Math/Science Support Classes (6-8 credits)

1. Applied Differential Equations or Advanced Mathematics for Engineers (3-4 credits)

• Focus on mathematical models and problem-solving for engineering applications.

2. Physics II: Electricity and Magnetism (3-4 credits)

• A foundational course that supports understanding electrical systems in vehicles.

3. Statistics for Engineers (3 credits) (Optional)

• Covers data analysis, probability, and quality control, useful in manufacturing and R&D.

Extracurricular/Skill Development

• Online Certifications: Enroll in online programs for skills like MATLAB, Python, or automotive diagnostics.

• SAE or Project Teams: Collaborate on automotive-related extracurricular projects.

  How did you manage all the work? Was it what you expected? What surprised you about college? How did you make friends? What study tips helped you the most? What college services did you use, and how did they help you? What about the INDIS program worked for you and what did not? What other classes did you take, and how did you succeed, or not? What would you do differently? I think overall I had to many classes and I could’ve done more online rather than have them all in person. Trying to balance work and then my personal life outside of school was just to much and I definitely could’ve avoided the levels of stress and conflict I had this semester.

I find it very difficult to wake up and have the will to go to class and sit and listen to lectures and have huge work loads, basically everything I did in high school. I thought me graduating was me saying goodbye but I guess not. It’s hard to balance school, homework, work, my music life, and family/partner time. What’s missing from my college experience? I feel like movies can glorify college or any experiences really and I expected college to be more welcoming or hype. I don’t know if its because its community college so its college but on a “lower level”. I’m glad that I am not getting it all right now and then it...
