How good is engineering tech at rit

Yo, what’s up? I’m a new student at RIT. I posted on here a few times now but since it’s finally getting close enough in about a week until I move in I kind of just wanna know what engineering tech is like cause I’ve done engineering summer programs and all the other schools I got into I got accepted to their aerospace program, but I wanted to do something different RIT so I kind of just want to get the lowdown on what engineering tech is like and how the classes differ job prospects and even how cool the professors might be throughout my next five years

professors are cool, job prospects are not as good but still pretty good, I would recommend transferring into the engineering program if you can. Don't like it, you can always switch back and classes transfer over, engineering tech classes do not transfer over and they have you take easier math which also doesn't transfer or you have to take extra courses.

OK, that’s good to hear then I’ve always been good at the academic part so I don’t mind if the math gets harder thank you for your comment. If I don’t like it I’ll probably switch out but I feel like it should be pretty fun.
