SCHOOL OF TECHNOLOGY Dean: A. Kent Randall Location: Engineering Technology, Room 110 Telephone Contact: Ginger Hauser 626-6303 Because of the rapid advancement in science and technology, there is a critical shortage of skilled and technically trained manpower in business and industry. The School seeks to assist men and women to meet these needs in society. To accomplish this, the School has committed itself to career-ladder, open-ended, individualized instruction, and is working steadily to develop systems for such instruction. The career-ladder approach to instruction recognizes that occupations in the technical fields require different levels of skill and knowledge even in closely related jobs. Our intent is to provide training and education aimed at identified present and potential careers whether those job requirements include certificate, diploma, associate, or baccalaureate degree requirements. We also welcome those who are presently employed who wish to upgrade and maintain job skills in our programs whether they are specifically aiming toward another level on the career-ladder or not. The open-ended aspect of our instruction means that normal college entry requirements are not strictly adhered to; aptitude and desire are limiting requirements. Open-ended also means that students are encouraged to leave when their career objectives have been attained and to return with appropriate credit for experience when their career objectives have changed. Students' programs are individually prescribed to meet career objectives as efficiently as possible. Some courses are also self-paced. Example programs are available in the departments. Actual individual schedules need to be established in departmental counseling to take advantage of prior schooling and experience. The School Is organized into the following departments: • Automotive & Mechanical Engineering Technology • Business Education/Administrative Systems • Computer Science • DistributiveTechnology • Electronic Engineering Technology • Manufacturing Engineering Technology In addition, a Pre-Engineering Program is operated within the School of Technology with its offerings presently coordinated from the Electronic Engineering Technology Department. Each of the departments issues certificates of skill proficiency for agreed upon levels of achievement. The College issues certificates, diplomas, and associate of applied science degrees in appropriate programs as indicated in the individual department descriptions. Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees may be earned by students completing baccalaureate programs in: Administrative Systems Automotive Engineering Technology Business Education (Composite Major) Computer Science Electronic Engineering Technology Manufacturing Engineering Technology Mechanical Engineering Technology Technical & Professional Sales ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY CORE PROGRAM Engineering Technology Programs prepare individuals for occupations working with both engineers and craftsmen, designers, and producers. Engineering Technology requires the application of scientific and engineering knowledge and methods combined with technical skills to support engineering activities. They apply established engineering principles and rules and direct production of machines, structures, and products which engineers have designed. This "hands on" approach is in contrast to the engineer who concentrates on design and on development of new engineering principles and procedures; and who requires, therefore, more extensive training in mathematics and science than does the Engineering Technologist. Students receiving a bachelor of science degree in any of the Engineering Technology majors must satisfy the following minimum core requirements: 1.

Lee Dickson General Requirements: • Students electing to complete the degree option must satisfy the requirements for General Education and the Specific College requirements (see index). • The Pre-engineering program offers the first two years of the professional engineering curricula for chemical, civil, electrical, mechanical, aeronautical, mining, metallurgical, and geological engineering.These two-year curricula are designed to prepare the engineering student to transfer to the junior year of engineering at the senior college of engineering in the state of Utah and also to many other professional engineering colleges and universities. • In planning their program it is important for students to be aware of certain prerequisites to, and scheduling of, key courses. Students should consult their adviser since improper scheduling of courses can cause some delay in their graduation. • A grade of C or better is required.
