Scan the code to view the program of study!

• Engineering undergraduate programs include more mathematics work and higher-level mathematics than technology programs.

• Engineering undergraduate programs often focus on theory, while technology programs focus on application.

• Graduates from engineering programs are called engineers, while graduates of technology programs are called “technologists.”

Admission Requirements

• Once they enter the workforce, engineering graduates typically spend their time planning, while engineering technology graduates spend their time making plans work.

Each applicant is evaluated based on individual merit and demonstrated success in a rigorous academic environment.
