Program Description
The Technology Education program is a partnership between NJIT and Rutgers University (Newark), offering a degree in Engineering Technology and an instructional certification with the Teacher of Technology Education endorsement. The technology education curriculum provides an in-depth knowledge of various engineering technology disciplines in addition to the required education courses. Students will take a core group of technical courses, and have an ability to concentrate in one or more of the Engineering Technology options. Students will also complete their degree with a 6-credit student teaching internship. Students who wish to enter the program as a transfer student are typically students with an A.A.S. degree in an Engineering Technology program or an A.S. program in a technical discipline. These students should have completed most or all of the courses, or their equivalents, in the first two years of the program. In the case of all students, both four-year and transfer, a minimum of 123 credits is required for graduation.
