Engineering technology management emphasizes the application and integration of physical and biological sciences, engineered systems, and business to manage human and natural resources in the production and processing of biological and mechanical products. It prepares students for technical management positions in biotechnology, environmental, and agricultural industries that require an understanding of both technology and management. Engineering technology management graduates are typically employed in technical sales, service, and management positions in production operations, processing industries, government agencies, and companies.
Courses are designed to apply physical science concepts and problem solving to biological and mechanical systems. Supporting courses provide a foundation of mathematics, chemistry, business, and computer and communication skills. Technical electives are available to develop a degree program that meets personal career objectives.
The Department of Biological and Agricultural Engineering administers the curriculum and leads to the Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering Technology Management.
