Manufacturing industries generally employ Applied Engineering Technicians, although the skills developed through the degree program can apply to a variety of technology-based organizations. Applied Engineering Technicians work under professional direction to effectively use personnel, materials, and machines to produce a quality, cost-effective product or service. They may prepare machinery and equipment layouts, plan workflows, conduct statistical production and quality studies, and analyze production costs. Students completing the two-year Associate of Applied Science Degree in Technology with the Applied Engineering concentration at Eastern Kentucky University, should they decide to continue their education in the future, can apply all of the credits earned toward the four-year Bachelor of Science Degree in Applied Engineering Management. The program is accredited by the Association of Technology, Management, and Applied Engineering (ATMAE)

Because there is a nation-wide shortage of qualified people, U.S. industries are seeking professional men and women who have a broad foundation of both technical and personal skills, including those in communication, critical-thinking, math, statistics, and science. The versatility of this degree allows graduates to contribute to many organizations. For example, they may work in supply chain management to help businesses minimize inventory costs, in quality assurance to help businesses keep their customers satisfied, and in production to help control costs and maximize efficiencies. The Occupational Outlook Handbook, April 12, 2019, lists the 2018 median Technician’s salary for Industrial Engineering Technicians (a similar occupation) as $55,460 a year.
