TCC students may now earn a four-year degree in civil engineering from Saint Martin's University by attending classes on the TCC campus. Students selecting this program beginning Fall 2009, will benefit from its flexibility.
Presently, TCC offers the Associate of Science in Engineering degree and students can specialize in civil, electrical, mechanical, chemical and several other fields. Under the new agreement, SMU will provide the second two years of courses, taught by their instructors at TCC during the afternoon, evenings and weekends.

Tacoma Community College was recently awarded a grant from the National Science Foundation to provide scholarships to students in engineering, math, science, computer science and information technology. Scholarships will be $4,500 per year, per scholarship, on average. (Actual amounts may be more or less, depending on financial need.) In addition to the scholarships, students will be mentored in cohort groups and will participate in enrichment activities, such as the opportunity for undergraduate research.
