Engineering Technology

Undergraduate Program

The Department of Engineering Technology offers five (5) programs of study leading to the bachelor of science (BS) degree. They are:

  1. Computer Science & Engineering Technology (CSET)
  2. Construction Engineering Technology (CET)
  3. Electrical Engineering Technology (EET)
  4. Information Technology (IT)
  5. Mechanical Engineering Technology (MET)

Detailed information about each of these programs can be found by clicking on "Overview of ET Programs" which is located to the right of this page.

All five programs are offered in three scheduling formats; four-year full-time day, six-year part-time evening and alternating co-op. The CSET program is also offered in an online degree-completion format.

The Co-Op Program is optional for students in all five undergraduate programs in the Department of Engineering Technology.

ASEE Annual Profiles: By the Numbers

To provide perspective for the numbers above, the documents linked at right and labeled "National Data" show how how the ET Department at UT compares to similar departments at other institutions in the country. These documents are compiled by the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) and published annually. Programs at UT are consistently in the top 10 (and often in the top 5) for both degrees awarded and total enrollment.
