Engineering and Industrial Technology: Inspections/Laboratory Technology

• Career Studies: Inspections/Lab Technology (077.03)
• Associate In Applied Science Degree: Civil Engineering Technology (915.00)

  The Civil Engineering Technology program prepares students to enter the field with instruction in theoretical concepts and practical experience. Options include two different career studies and an associate's degree.

  Students earning the Inspection/Lab Technician option certificate become inspector assistants or construction material testers. With the associate's degree, graduates work as civil engineering technicians, construction inspectors, estimators, surveyors, construction superintendents, or civil or highway engineering aides.

  A cooperative education program can provide practical experience for students while they gain academic credit and supplementary income.

  In addition to the college's general admission requirements, students must have completed three units of high school mathematics. They must also take Entering Student Assessment (placement) tests in reading, composition, and mathematics. The college has a required developmental program for students who need to remedy deficiencies in these areas.

  The career studies program takes two to three semesters to complete. The Associate in Applied Science degree requires four semesters of full-time study.
