Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology

Mission Statement 

The mission of the Southeastern Louisiana University Engineering Technology program
is to prepare students so that they will establish themselves as successful, practicing
graduates in their respective concentration in ET, and will advance themselves professionally
by accepting responsibilities and leadership roles for the benefit of society. The
Engineering Technology program is accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation
Commission of ABET, http://www.abet.org, under the General Criteria.

 

Program Educational Objectives 

  1. Graduates will achieve professional knowledge, skill and competence in their particular
    concentration in Engineering Technology.

  2. Graduates will learn to communicate effectively in a professional environment.

  3. Graduates will understand the ethical and societal impact of engineering practices.

  4. Graduates will understand the need for professionalism in their respective field of
    employment or business.

  5. Graduates will demonstrate job preparedness and specific background training in their
    respective concentration in Engineering Technology.

 

Student Outcomes 

  1. 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.

  2. an ability to design systems, components, or processes meeting specified needs for
    broadly-defined engineering problems appropriate to the discipline.

  3. 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.

  4. an ability to conduct standard tests, measurements, and experiments and to analyze
    and interpret the results to improve processes.

  5. an ability to function effectively as a member or leader on a technical team.

 

 

The Program Educational Objectives are linked to Student Learning Outcomes which have
been mapped to each course in the curriculum.

Program Description

ET Students

The field of Engineering Technology is concerned with the practical application of
engineering knowledge to support engineering activities. An Engineering Technology
program differs from a classic Engineering program in that it is more applied and
focused on applications of technology while an Engineering program is focused more
on theoretical fundamentals that can lead to the development of new technology.

The objective of the Engineering Technology Program is to emphasize engineering technology
fundamentals bolstered by practical experiences, and to prepare students for engineering
and technology related professions, advanced education, and lifelong learning. The
program will stress the application of sciences to the solution of technological problems,
technical knowledge, problem solving skills, and implementation skills.
