Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between engineering and engineering technology?
Engineering and engineering technology are separate but closely related professional areas.
Engineering technology programs are more practical than theoretical in nature, focusing on application and implementation. Graduates of two-year engineering technology programs likely assume engineering technician positions in maintenance, production or product development.
Engineering programs often focus on theory and conceptual design, and typically require additional higher-level mathematics. Graduates from engineering programs often pursue entry-level work involving conceptual design or research and development.
Can I take classes online or face-to-face?
Students at COTC have the flexibility to take classes face-to-face or online. The engineering technology program has courses that must be completed face-to-face for students to learn through hands-on experience using equipment and technology in the engineering technology program.
What type of financial assistance is available to help me pay for college?
COTC awards $1 million in scholarships to students each year.
Every student is encouraged to complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to be considered for grants, scholarships and loans.
Students who complete a FAFSA are automatically considered for some scholarships. Other scholarships require an application.

Can I pursue a bachelor’s degree after I complete an associate degree?
Students interested in continuing their education to pursue a bachelor’s degree can consider transferring to a four-year college or university. Many of COTC’s general education courses are transferrable to public universities in Ohio. Some universities also accept transfer credit of technical courses in engineering technology.

The Right Thing
Mike Johnson had a motto: Always do the right thing because it’s the right thing to do. Perhaps that is why all of his children pursued careers protecting and caring for others. And they all began at COTC.
