Engineering technology focuses on how science and engineering principles can be applied to real world problems. It's helpful to think of it as the more practical arm of the engineering field. In an academic setting, engineering technology covers many of the same subjects as engineering, but in a more hands-on manner rather than a theoretical one.
A Bachelor's Degree in Engineering Technology can be a great starting point if you want to learn how to develop and apply new technologies. Curious about whether engineering technology is right for you? We've created this article to answer some questions about the engineering technology field, as well as discuss some of what you'll learn in an engineering technology degree program, what skills you’ll need in the field and explore some of the jobs you might be able to consider in the following sections:
