Engineering Technology: Bachelor of Applied Science

Return to: Programs of Study

Overview

The Bachelor of Applied Science in Engineering Technology (BAS-ET) 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

After successfully completing the Engineering Technology: Bachelor of Applied Science degree, students will be able to:

• 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.

Program Admission Requirement

• Completed Accredited Associate Degree or higher
• Cumulative GPA of 2.5 or higher

Program Application/Forms

• NOTE: Earning an Associate degree does not mean that you will be automatically accepted into the BAS-ENGT program. You will still need to go through a competitive application process.
