Career
Regardless of the specific pathway you choose, your Associate in Engineering Technology will help prepare you to apply the latest skills, knowledge and techniques to solve technology problems. You will learn to conduct tests and measurements, analyze the results and design and implement solutions.
With an Associate in Engineering Technology, you can consider careers including, but not limited to:
Electrical Engineering Technologist
As an electrical engineering technologist, you’ll help electrical engineers through all aspects of their projects. Depending on the specific role, you might develop layouts of electrical transmission systems, supervise workflows and perform cost estimates. Or you might work hands-on installing and maintaining electrical equipment, electrical control systems or industrial automation systems.
Manufacturing Engineering Technologist
Manufacturing engineering technologists wear many hats. Job duties focus on designing, developing and implementing equipment, machinery and technologies to improve manufacturing processes. You may be responsible for analyzing existing processes to look for areas for improvement, making recommendations and then implementing solutions.
Computer Network Support Technician
As the name suggests, network support technicians focus on the development and maintenance of IT networks. Your role might include upgrading networks and repairing errors, monitoring performance, optimizing servers and improving security for both networks and data.
Engineering Technologist (General)
If you have a broad range of interests, this could be a great position for you. Rather than specializing in just one area, such as electrical engineering or mechanical engineering, a general engineering technologist has the skills and knowledge to solve problems across many different types of engineering. Working under a specialized engineer, you might be involved in product design, field engineering or technical operations.

A Bachelor's Degree in Engineering Technology is an undergraduate degree that can help you build your understanding of how certain technology and engineering principles are implemented. This type of degree program aims to teach you how these skills can be applied in a variety of industries.
At DeVry, our Bachelor's of Engineering Technology is particularly focused on building foundational skills like Industrial IoT, Project Management, Digital Literacy and more through the use of hands-on learning. Over the course of this program, you will have the opportunity to gain programming and engineering skills such as development and design that may help prepare you to pursue a career in this field alongside other engineers.
At DeVry, our curriculum is skills-focused. It also fully embeds our IT Essentials Certificate and Associate in Engineering Technology degree2 programs, while focusing in-depth on current needs and trends in the field.
If you decide to pursue a career in engineering technology you may end up working alongside engineers, but the two disciplines focus on slightly different things. Engineering technology tends to focus more on the real-world development and implementation of technology-based solutions, while engineers typically study and may work on a product’s design and theoretical construction. Engineers may also need additional work experience or licensure from their state to become fully licensed engineers.
At DeVry, the Tech Core curriculum included in our Engineering Technology programs teaches you the language of technology. You’ll use programming languages such as Python, and learn core concepts including data and people management, the interconnectedness of devices and the security protocols necessary to protect both data and networks. All course content is reviewed by faculty to ensure its longevity in the quickly evolving tech space.
Which degree you choose to earn is a personal choice, but as technology becomes ever more complex, you may find that a bachelor’s degree provides you with a variety of options. Our Bachelor's in Engineering Technology program offers flexibility and customization, allowing you to follow your interests in the rapidly evolving tech space. It also provides you with a strong hands-on education, including career-oriented skills and an industry-relevant final project.
