Engineering Technology

 

This program involves the hands-on application of technical expertise to engineering tasks in a wide range of industries. From building our nation’s infrastructure to making our transportation and energy systems more efficient, wherever scientists and engineers are found, so are engineering technicians and technologists. Engineering techs may assist with setting up equipment, conducting experiments, and collecting data, or involved in the design and development end of the process, using computer-aided design and drafting (CADD) equipment. Students will also gain knowledge in data gathering methodologies including remote sensing systems, optics and GIS technology.
