Community Colleges in Nebraska with Engineering Degrees
Of the community colleges that offer accredited engineering courses, two (Western Nebraska community College and Northeast Community College offer engineering transfer study to the university level, and Union College in Lincoln offers an Associates of Science (2-year) degree. Of the 4, only Metropolitan Community College – Omaha offers bachelors degrees, and they offer them in numerous engineering fields.
As for online engineering degrees, the 6 schools vary greatly in their offerings. For example, the University of Nebraska at Omaha has highly rated online degrees in public administration and a few in general studies, but nothing much in engineering, according to their website.
The University of Nebraska at Omaha has a Bachelors of Applied Science program online, however most of the degrees are related to agriculture.
The University of Nebraska –Lincoln offers both bachelors and masters degrees online, but none in engineering.
Northeast Community College doesn’t offer any degree programs related to engineering.
Metropolitan Community College- Omaha has some of its engineering courses online for credit, but the only engineering related online degrees seem to be in the medical field and in information technology.
