As a student in the Engineering Technology program, you'll learn to apply engineering and scientific concepts to manufacturing-related industries. A broad technical core stresses applied laboratory experiences. Your theoretical education is based in the practical experiences of your professors, all of whom have industrial experience in their specialized fields. The strong professional studies area provides you with the foundations you need for a future management career track.

The Engineering Technology program began at UW-Stout in the late 1950s. Through the years, the program has kept current with the needs of industry by way of strong external advisory groups, as well as graduate and employer surveys. In 2001 the program name was changed from Industrial Technology to Engineering Technology to better identify the skills held by graduates.
