Meet Ben Johnson:

STUDENT SPOTLIGHT: Ben Johnson, a recent graduate, doesn’t take for granted the opportunity to be a collegiate athlete. While at ETSU, Johnson successfully balanced his athletic and academic obligations and earned a bachelor’s degree in electronics engineering technology. Whether he’s tinkering with robots, cameras or throwing a javelin, the Nashville native has a bright future ahead.

Engineering Technologists use technology and innovative thinking to solve problems. For example,  at the start of the COVID-19 outbreak, we experienced a shortage of personal protective equipment, or PPE, to reduce exposure and limit spread of the disease. Faculty members from our Engineering Technology program saw the need and decided to use our talents and resources to help. Through innovation, problem solving, and community support, they were able to create a prototype that did not require a 3D printer and could be quickly created and assembled. Nearly 5,000 emergency face shields designed by ETSU have been donated thus far.⁠
