Minors and Certificates in EAET

The Engineering and Engineering Technology department offers minors in Architecture, Electrical Engineering Technology, and Mechanical Engineering Technology, as well as certificates in Electrical Engineering Technology, Additive Manufacturing Engineering, & Advanced Composite Materials and Manufacturing. Minors and certificates are open to student of all majors; including the EET certificate to EET majors. Students interested in the minor or certificate do not need an extensive math background.

Please read the below descriptions for more information about these offerings.

Civil Engineering Technology offers a minor in Architecture (ARCH) for interested students. This option provides students the opportunity to become familiar with architecture and develop a specialized area of interest within the field. In pursuit of the minor, students will get to work hands-on with their own designs and see the collaboration between fields. Additionally, students who complete the minor in Architecture have a standing invitation to further purse the subject at the University of Pécs. The Architecture minor is composed of 18 credit hours.

Students interested in the minor do not need an extensive math background.
