AA/AS in Engineering Technologies/Technicians, General

This associate-level program at Athens Technical College trains students in applied engineering through four specialities: electromechanical, electrical, environmental and civil engineering technology. Coursework leans heavily on laboratory instruction so students work with current equipment and methods. Every graduating student completes either an internship or a capstone project. Employers and organizations regularly visit the department looking for applicants, and graduates find openings across northeast Georgia, with environmental and civil design firms in the Atlanta area also hiring. The program suits learners who want a hands-on route into technician-level engineering work.
