Session 3247 Engineering Technology Masters Program: Thesis Required! Albert B. Grubbs, Jr., Michael R. Kozak University of North TexasAbstractNot a single Engineering Technology doctoral degree-granting program could be located in theUnited States by the authors. Therefore, it could be argued, and has been, that the master’sdegree is the terminal degree for Engineering Technology. In many programs located at doctoralgranting institutions, a doctoral degree is either implicitly or practically required for tenure andpromotion. Two recent national studies, conducted by the authors
