Â鶹ÊÓƵ's Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology program provides students with a hands-on, application-focused education in engineering principles and practices. The program emphasizes practical skills in areas such as mechanical design, electrical systems, manufacturing processes, and quality control, preparing students to solve real-world engineering challenges. Through lab work, projects, and internships, students gain valuable experience working with current technologies and industry tools. Graduates are equipped with the technical expertise and problem-solving abilities needed for careers in manufacturing, automation, electronics, and quality assurance, as well as for contributing to technological advancements in various industrial sectors.
The bachelor degree programs in Engineering Technology provide the basis for an exciting career in Engineering!
This degree offers in-depth specializations in:
It allows the graduate to apply all of the coursework completed in the Engineering Technology Associate Degree toward the Bachelor of Science degree program. This degree can be completed entirely at our Tuscarawas Campus. Online options are offered for all our junior and senior level technical classes!
Since our bachelor level engineering technology degree is accredited, it is a gateway for our graduates to become in the State of Ohio. Graduates of this program will be prepared for a broad spectrum of the field, specifically such topics as:
Engineering Technology Department
The unique 2+2 nature of our BS Engineering Technology degree makes our program a good fit for the incoming transfer student. For a student with a previously earned qualifying AAS Degree track, our BS Engineering Technology degree can be completed in two years or at your own pace. The major courses are offered online and at the Â鶹ÊÓƵ Regional Campus tuition rate; the resulting degree is fully ABET Accredited.
For example:
(PE) license is licensed by a state board of registration to practice engineering. The PE license is the engineering profession's highest standard of competence, a symbol of achievement and assurance of quality. Since our program is ABET accredited, graduates from our bachelor level engineering technology degree programs are eligible to become registered professional engineers (P.E.) in the State of Ohio by a process of two examinations (the FE and PE exams) and documentation of engineering work experience (typically 7 years).
The Program Educational Objectives (PEO) of the Bachelor of Science, Engineering Technology Program describe the expected objectives of graduates, during the first few years after graduation. Our graduates will:
