Engineering Technology (ET) Accreditation
Program Educational Objectives
The objectives of the Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology Program, similar to the Electrical Engineering (EE) Program, are to produce engineers who can innovate and advance in their chosen careers in industry, academia, and public institutions, while making creative contributions to the field of electrical engineering and engineering technology.
Our graduates:
1. Are successfully employed due to their solid engineering foundation and ability to learn and apply new technology.
2. Lead others by using their effective problem solving and communication skills.
3. Are responsible engineers with an awareness of ethical and social-cultural issues.
4. Are effective contributors to multidisciplinary teams.
Student Learning Outcomes
Engineering Technology (ET) student outcomes that prepare graduates to attain the program educational objectives are presented in this section. The ET student outcomes are the same as the ABET ETAC student outcomes (SO1) through (SO5) as listed below:
(SO1) an ability to apply knowledge, techniques, skills and modern tools of mathematics, science, engineering, and technology to solve broadly defined engineering problems appropriate to the discipline;
(SO2) an ability to design systems, components, or processes meeting specified needs for broadly defined engineering problems appropriate to the discipline;
(SO3) an ability to apply written, oral, and graphical communication in broadly defined technical and non-technical environments; and an ability to identify and use appropriate technical literature;
(SO4) an ability to conduct standard tests, measurements, and experiments and to analyze and interpret the results to improve processes; and
(SO5) an ability to function effectively as a member as well as a leader on technical teams.
