Fall 2025
New in the 2025–2026 Academic Year: Wright State is offering a Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology, an interdisciplinary program that will prepare you for real-world applications. This versatile engineering major focuses on practical engineering principles that can lead to a career in production, design, manufacturing, and operations.
The program is primarily designed for students with associate degrees who desire more advanced preparation in engineering technology. You can enjoy a flexible hybrid schedule of both in-person and online learning. To learn more, enroll, or transfer into this degree, please contact the College of Engineering and Computer Science.
Why Choose Engineering Technology?
Engineering technology focuses on practical application of knowledge rather than theoretical knowledge. The Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology (B.S.E.T.) offers students a foundation in mechanical, electrical, and industrial engineering and technology through an interdisciplinary program.
Careers
This program prepares you for a career in a variety of engineering fields, including for example:
- Quality control
- Product development and design
- Software development and design
- System development and design
- Field service engineering
- Systems engineering
- Process engineering
- Automated manufacturing
You’ll also be prepared for project management and business operations environments.
Academics and Curriculum
The B.S.E.T. is a 120-semester hour program designed to prepare students for a variety of careers in the industry. The coursework within the program is comprised of a technical core covering engineering and computer science topics, as well as a focus area in industrial and systems engineering or electrical engineering, for a comprehensive curriculum of modern engineering design skills.
Students choose a specialization in either industrial/systems engineering or electrical engineering, with a focus on real-world applications. The B.S.E.T. includes an emphasis in business analytics or computing and information technology. For students who transfer to Wright State with an earned associate’s degree in an engineering technology field, there is also a technical foundations emphasis.
