I graduated with a degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Evansville (go Aces!).

From what I can tell, the main difference between engineering and engineering technology is that an engineering degree is considerably more calculus-dependent. Courses in the engineering cirriculum depend more on upper level math (differential equations, calculus, etc.) while courses in the technology department focus more on practical applications.

UE did not offer any technology degrees, so I had no choice. The benefit to going to a large engineering university is that you do get that choice. Many small engineering schools don't offer technology degrees.

If I were to do it again, I probably would've done the same thing. While I don't really use high-end math (diffy-q, etc.) at my current job, it is nice to know that I have the background to use it if needed.
