The field of engineering and technology involves the study of how the conceptual design focus of engineering can be utilized in technological applications. Engineering and technology students learn how to take the plans made by engineers and make them work in the real world.

An undergraduate certificate bridges the gap between a bachelor’s and master’s degree. It typically does not take as much time, since there are fewer courses, and little to no research is required. Students should consult their prospective school for information regarding the length of a program.
