The Engineering Technology program prepares graduates for a variety of engineering associated positions with industry.

The Construction Specialization examines construction of all types of buildings and prepares the student for a career in construction science.

The Electrical Specialization prepares students for positions as engineering technologists. Employment opportunities exist in instrumentation, communications, digital systems, power systems, manufacturing, and other related fields. The graduates may also be involved in research development, maintenance, production or sales in the area of electrical engineering.

The Instructional Support Specialization prepares learners to assume the role of network, telecommunications, and instructional systems support in training, educational, or distance learning environments. Implementation, maintenance, and adaptation of these technologies with an instructional perspective is the focus of this specialization. The program is designed for delivery at a distance and exploits technology to offer learners opportunity to pursue the degree even when regular attendance is problematic or relocation is necessary.

Manufacturing Engineering Technology is designed for those interested in the technical aspects of manufacturing, and other industrial occupations. The curricula of most engineering colleges have tended, in recent years, toward preparing the new engineers for the much needed research and development aspects of industry. This trend has created a shortage of personnel at the level once occupied by the newly graduated engineer. Manufacturing Engineering Technology provides coursework in the areas of general engineering fundamentals.

PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS
