The College of Applied Engineering, Sustainability and Technology provides innovative curricula and degree programs that integrate engineering principles with technology, management and design with a foundation in liberal education. This combination prepares graduates for life-long learning and successful careers. Applied Engineering and Technology Management is the field concerned with the application of management, design, and technical skills to the design and integration of systems, the execution of new product designs, the improvement of manufacturing processes, and the management and direction of physical and/or technical functions of an organization. The Applied Engineering programs include instruction in basic engineering principles, project management, processes, production and operations, systems integration and control, quality and statistics. The program can also function as a completer degree for students with engineering technology associate degrees. The majority of the coursework in the final two years focuses on the management of applied engineering and technology.

Graduates of this program will be able to: Demonstrate appropriate technology skills and have a broad knowledge of the current technology needed to succeed in the changing knowledge economy. Demonstrate comprehensive knowledge and skills in the areas of manufacturing systems, electricity and electronics, computer aided design, computer use and programming in applied engineering, mechanical systems, management, and general technology. Acquire a broad education in Technology and Applied Engineering that will enable successful employment in emerging jobs and careers.
