So I got my AA at community college and my bachelors in computer engineering at a university. Other then math and physics there wasn't a ton of useful classes in CC.

But if you are going to an ABET accredited school (or similar if outside north america) you are going to learn a lot in university.

You should learn how to analyze basic RLC circuits. How semiconductors work at a atomic level. How to design basic transistor circuits. Logic gates both design and analysis. Flipflops (the simplest computer). Computer architecture. A programming language or two and some basic assembly. How to use an oscope, logic probe, and multi meter. Basic digital signal processing, fourier transform, and linear controls.

There is a ton to learn and it's not stuff you can just pickup on the job.

Keep at it and good luck.
