What’s the difference between engineering technology and traditional engineering?

While engineering and engineering technology grads often work collaboratively, there are some key differences between the two disciplines.

Engineering Technology

  • More hands-on, practical learning
  • Business application focus
  • Relies more on business and leadership insight to solve problems
  • Focused on operations with innovative equipment

Engineering

  • More theory-based, abstract learning
  • Scientific focus
  • Relies more on scientific analysis to understand systems
  • Focused on design
