Our Mission Statement

The mission of the Department of Engineering Technology and Geomatics is to provide a student‑centric education through experiential learning to prepare students for a rewarding career.

• Faculty work closely with students and each other to foster a family-like environment.
• Core courses have labs with team projects and hands-on learning experiences.
• Graduates advance to enhanced career opportunities with competitive compensation.

Our goal is to help students from diverse backgrounds reach their potential and become successful engineers, technologists, and leaders in the region and nationwide.

Overview

Our programs bridge theory and application, prioritizing hands‑on implementation of engineering principles. Students design, construct, and test systems through immersive labs and teamwork.

What is Engineering Technology?

Engineering Technology emphasizes applying techniques rather than developing concepts. It blends mathematics, computers, hands‑on experience, and communication to prepare students for practical careers with independence and responsibility.

What is Geomatics?

Geomatics focuses on acquiring and analyzing precise spatial information using UAVs, GNSS, 3D laser scanners, satellite imagery, and GIS. It supports infrastructure design, resource management, and coastal monitoring systems.
