Engineering
Engineers work very closely with other members of the engineering team
consisting of scientists, technologists, technicians, and craftsmen. The
engineers typically design, develop, optimize systems and processes.
Engineering
Technology
Engineering technologists work very closely with other members of the
engineering team consisting of scientists, engineers, technicians, and
craftsmen. The engineering technologist typically organizes the manpower,
materials and equipment to design, construct, operate, maintain and manage
technical engineering projects.
Industrial
Technology
Industrial Technologists work very closely with other members of the
engineering and marketing team consisting of scientists, engineers,
technicians, craftsmen, marketers, trainers, and managers,
within a broad variety of industries. The industrial technologists typically
assume positions in training, production management, quality management,
facilities management, industrial sales and marketing, and manufacturing
management.
Technology
Education
The Technology Education curriculum is designed to prepare graduates as
teachers of technology
education at the elementary and secondary school levels. It deals with tools,
materials, processes,
products, and occupations of modern industry.
The Department of Engineering, Engineering Technology and Industrial Education and Technology has the mission of specifically promoting and sustaining Bachelor of Science degree programs which meet the needs of industry and society, particularly, in the central/south-side Virginia.
ELEVEN PRINCIPLES THAT THE ETC ENDORSES.
Available; http://www.purdue.anderson.edu/ETD/elevenprinciples.htm
The following document was published February,
1991 and is the final version of the "Eleven Principles", which have
been developed and endorsed by the institutional voting representatives of the
ASEE's Engineering Technology Council (ETC).
On March 15, 1991, S.R. Cheshier, Chairman, ETC
wrote the following:
"It is the desire of the ETC that when
various studies are undertaken, proposals are developed, or decisions are made
that concern and involve the engineering technology community, these
"Principles" will be considered as representing the interest of that
community.
It is further hoped that not only will the
ASEE Board and membership be sympathetic to these views, but that also groups
like ABET, NSPE, and the various discipline oriented professional societies
will consider these viewpoints in their decision making processes."
