Overview
The Bachelor of Applied Science in Engineering Technology (BASET) program at Bellingham Technical College prepares undergraduates by fostering the development of extensive problem-solving skills, design skills, and engineering judgment as well as fundamental industry knowledge and research experience through the combination of a rigorous curriculum and hands-on learning.
Our Engineering Technology program focuses on real-world application of engineering principles. Engineering technologists play a critical role in the fields of advanced manufacturing, electrical and mechanical systems, and chemical processing by serving as a nexus between engineers and technicians. From conception to design, development, testing and production of equipment, components, and processes, Engineering technologists make an essential contribution to the engineering field.
Program Outcomes
- 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.
- An ability to design systems, components, or processes meeting specified needs for broadly-defined engineering problems appropriate to the discipline.
- 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.
- An ability to conduct standard tests, measurements, and experiments and to analyze and interpret the results to improve processes.
- An ability to function effectively as a member or leader on a technical team.
