Department of
Engineering Technology

“Engineering Technology is one branch of engineering education that focuses on contemporary practical applications” – American Society of Engineering Education (ASEE)

Engineering Technology graduates work in science and engineering research and development of products, prepare and conduct experiments, and make prototypes. Curriculum concentration on problem-solving, hands-on application of science and technology enabled all of our graduates to hold distinguished engineering titles. Our graduates are important contributors to all facets of engineering.

“Ask not for what a university degree can do for you, but what can you do with a university degree.” – Dr. Sabah Abro, Engineering Technology Chair

Our experienced professors will provide you with a firm foundation in science and engineering methods, concepts and theoretical applications. In our department you will have the opportunity to work on industry-sponsored projects with local firms as part of your senior project experience. You’ll also develop your own projects in an environment of entrepreneurship and innovation.
