The Engineering Technology program prepares students for transfer to "Engineering Technology" programs and for employment in technical fields. By completing the certificate or degree, students acquire knowledge of the fundamentals of engineering technology and are able to specialize in one of three options. The first option is Electrical and Electronic Engineering Technology, the second option is Mechanical Engineering Technology and the third option is Industrial Engineering Technology. Careers in engineering technology involve assisting engineers in researching, developing, manufacturing, servicing, and maintaining a wide variety of products. Those certificates are highly sought after as they are the key to a successful career in many industries. The department has a dedicated practical lab in the "Metals" building room ME-2 and 2 labs with 28 computers each in the brand new "PST" building allowing for ample student-computer interaction.
