of using applied engineering in theirname.Today, there is compelling evidence from an industry perspective that B.S. programs inengineering technology are, in fact, the manifestation of the “applied” pathway to engineering13.In 2010, the Engineering Technology Council (ETC) of ASEE surveyed 200 companies in USAto investigate the difference, if any, between engineering and engineering technology graduates.The results showed that 7 out 10 employers make no distinction between the two groups inassigning functions and responsibilities13. The employers also see little difference in on-the-jobcapabilities or job advancement between the two groups. The majority of these companies assignthe title of “engineer” to either graduate. The use of applied
