Advancing Your Engineering Technology Journey?

The Fujio Cho Department of Engineering Technology provides two four-year undergraduate degrees: Lean Systems Engineering Technology and Computer Engineering Technology.

Graduates of this program will be trained in the latest technologies and equipped with the practical skills and hands-on experience necessary for thriving in advanced technology industries. Students can enjoy an integrated education with a unique technology pathway that features participation in extensive industrial practicums.

There are two pathways in the Engineering Technology Department. One leads to a Bachelor of Science in Lean Systems Engineering Technology, and the other leads to a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering Technology. The programs are a 2-plus-2 arrangement that allows students to earn an Associate of Applied Science Degree (AAS) from a designated Kentucky Community and Technical College Systems School and a Bachelor of Science (BS) from the University of Kentucky, in two years. Students will work towards their Bachelor of Science degree at the University of Kentucky during the second two years.
