There is generally a focus on the real-world application of skills. People who pursue this degree may want to deepen their professional expertise within their current industry or may be looking to switch professional gears.

    What are Professional Studies in Technology and Engineering? A degree of this nature may focus on information technology, or it may be concerned with construction design and planning. Different programs can offer courses that aim to intensify a student’s knowledge of the subject in order to maximize its application to existing industries. In most cases, the course of study will combine classroom lectures with fieldwork. Classes may include computer science, psychology, decision support, industry security, risk management, and crisis and disaster management.
