AB  - An engineering technologist is a specialist dedicated to the development, design, and implementation of engineering and technology in engineering field. It is generally expected engineering technologists often work under professional engineers. However, International Engineering Technologists Agreement (IETA) stipulates an engineering technology shall demonstrate “the competence for independent practice as an engineering technologist as exemplified by the International Engineering Alliance (IEA) competency profile.” IETA (Sydney Accord) provides knowledge profile for engineering technologists as: a systematic, theory- based understanding of the natural sciences applicable to the sub-discipline, conceptually-based mathematics, numerical analysis, statistics, and aspects of computer and information science to support analysis and use of models applicable to the sub-discipline, a systematic theory- based formulation of engineering fundamentals required in an accepted sub-discipline, engineering specialist knowledge that provided theoretical frameworks and bodies of knowledge for an accepted sub-discipline.   
 
Engineering technologies in India are taught in “Polytechnic” colleges at the post-secondary level. They are usually three-year diploma program under the supervision of respective state board of technical education. These programs are kept outside the purview of university system. Often they are called Licentiate in Civil Engineering (LCE) or Licentiate in Mechanical Engineering (LME) or licentiate in other disciplines of engineering. Many of the early engineering colleges, now some of prestigious colleges of engineering in India started as “Licentiate” granting institution during late 19th Century. This paper will describe status of engineering technology education in India, its curricula, admission criteria, and job prospects for the graduates, pathway to engineering, etc
