Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology - Concentration in Mechatronics Engineering Technology

The mission of the Southeastern Louisiana University Engineering Technology program is to prepare students so that they will establish themselves as successful, practicing graduates in their respective concentration in ET, and will advance themselves professionally by accepting responsibilities and leadership roles for the benefit of society. The Engineering Technology program is accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission of ABET.

The field of Engineering Technology is concerned with the practical application of engineering knowledge to support engineering activities. An Engineering Technology program differs from a classic Engineering program in that it is more applied and focused on applications of technology while an Engineering program is focused more on theoretical fundamentals that can lead to the development of new technology.

The objective of the Engineering Technology Program is to emphasize engineering technology fundamentals bolstered by practical experiences and to prepare students for engineering and technology-related professions, advanced education, and lifelong learning. The program will stress the application of sciences to the solution of technological problems, technical knowledge, problem-solving skills, and implementation skills.

This Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology degree program combines the application of scientific and engineering knowledge with engineering methods and technical skills to prepare graduates for a variety of industrial and government workforce needs.

The College of Science and Technology at Southeastern offers numerous high-quality degree programs in many STEM disciplines. Our graduates are highly sought after by regional and national technology companies and are very competitive for placement in postgraduate programs. Our faculty and facilities are world-class, and our classes are typically small, so students receive a great deal of individual attention.
