programs in engineering technology. The BLS provides thefollowing notes regarding 4-year engineering technology programs: ≠ The programs include various hands-on laboratory classes that focus on current application issues. ≠ Students are prepared for practical design and production work, rather than jobs that require more theoretical knowledge. ≠ Engineering technology graduates may obtain jobs similar to those given to engineering graduates. ≠ Engineering technology graduates are not qualified to register as professional engineers under the same terms as graduates with degrees in engineering. ≠ Some employers regard 4-year technology program graduates as having skills between those of a technician

Much of this effort is brought to fruition by acquiring grantfunds that can be used to explore new teaching methods and increase underrepresentedenrollment. Summer research opportunities can also be used to accomplish the goal ofimproving the curriculum and increasing diversity.

These courses develop a strong programming foundation for the students;however, they lack the ability to introduce software programming within larger softwaresystems. The final course related to software development is a required operating systemscourse. This course contains three fundamental goals: to develop the students’ understanding ofkey operating system concepts, to increase the students’ software engineering capabilities, and tointroduce the students to the internal workings of the Linux and Windows

area to cover. The main complaint heard from EET facultyregards the lack of text books written for the technologist who will support equipment. There aretwo main reasons for this shortage. First, there is a very small market to sell potential texts.Only a handful of schools offer this specialty and most publishers would like to sell largenumbers of books. Secondly, medical technology is rapidly evolving; it is difficult to keep a textbook up-to-date. As a result, without a text book as a guide, many potential instructors shy awayfrom teaching a class in this area, even when they have the necessary expertise.A second issue relates to hands on experiences for students on medical equipment. TraditionalEET programs are built around laboratory
