Engineering Technology Area – Bachelor of Science
The engineering technology program, accredited by the Association of Technology, Management, and Applied Engineering (ATMAE), provides students with the knowledge and understanding of more rigorous and analytical methods for technical problem-solving in an industrial setting. The development of such competencies is essential to the preparation of skilled technical professionals who can undertake tasks requiring greater depth and understanding of advanced technology. The engineering technology program aims to prepare a group of graduates who will fill advanced engineering technology positions in business and industry. The main objectives of the program are: 1) to develop students with enhanced technological skills; and 2) to place these students in business, industry and government as technical problem-solvers.
