Engineering Technology Associate of Science
The Engineering Technology program at Bakersfield College is designed for those who want a hands-on engineering career with a focus on technology in an applied setting. The program provides students with foundational knowledge in mathematics, critical thinking, problem solving, and engineering design, as well as strong technical skills so that students can adapt to the ever-changing modern industrial workplace. Upon completion of the required core classes engineering technology students select elective classes from an engineering discipline (or combination of disciplines) of interest – architectural, civil, industrial drawing, mechanical, electrical/electronics, or occupational safety. Graduates of associate degree programs seek employment as engineering technicians. Graduates of bachelor degree programs are referred to as technologists and can earn a Professional Engineers license in
