Engineering Technology

What Northern Arizona University says about their program:

Engineering Technology is the practical application of engineering principles andpractice to real-world problems. Engineering Technology is differentiated, in part, by the level and amount of math involved but also in the emphasis on engineering applications rather than theory and research. While there is overlap in career outcomes for students in both Engineering and Engineering Technology, careers in Engineering Technology tend to be more applied and would include construction and manufacturing process management, field engineering, engineering sales and marketing, product service and support, product testing, and product quality control.Students in the Engineering Technology Program will learn computational tools for engineering, engineering design methods, engineering ethics and standards, quality systems, and elective content focused on general engineering and semiconductor manufacturing. The NAU experience culminates in a one-semester Capstone where students will work with our industry partners on real-world problems that will prepare them for jobs and give them industry networking opportunities.The Engineering Technology program has two emphases. The General Engineering emphasis allows students to select upper-division elective coursework to match their interests and provide broad practice in engineering technology. The Semiconductor Fabrication emphasis allows students to take specific coursework related to electronic materials, devices, and fabrication. While the General Engineering emphasis provides a broad foundation in engineering technology principles and practice, the Semiconductor Fabrication emphasis provides specialized training for careers in the electronics and semiconductor industry.
