This program (known as EET) offers a combination of engineering theory and hands-on skills using state-of-the-art equipment. Class and lab size are kept small, giving students ample opportunity to interact with instructors.
The majority of program courses are taught by full-time faculty with advanced degrees and significant, relevant industry experience. Graduates can continue their education by transferring to at a 4-year engineering program, and students are dual admitted to UNH’s EET bachelor’s degree program.
- CL – Number of lecture/classroom hours per week for the course
- LAB – Number of simulation laboratory, laboratory or clinical hours per week for the course
- CR – Number of credit hours for the course

Specific Admissions Requirements
Applicants require at least three years of college preparatory math (Algebra I, Algebra II, and Geometry) with
minimum grades of C or higher. It is also recommended applicants have satisfactorily completed high school courses in Chemistry and Physics.
This program is accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission of ABET, www.abet.org.
Students complete a capstone project over two consecutive semesters. This hands-on experience strengthens their ability to apply engineering theory to the development of practical solutions to real-world engineering problems. A fully equipped project lab and mentoring by faculty with extensive industry experience/expertise provide a unique learning environment. Prospective employers see this as a distinguishing feature of NHTI’s EET program.
