description This paper reports a study on the framework development for application-based teaching and learning in engineering technology education in Malaysia.

The nation needs to produce two types of engineers –theoretical and research-based engineers, application and practice-oriented engineers. The latter group is an industrial-ready graduate who is immediately able to serve as a shop floor engineer or take up a new job as an entrepreneur. This group of graduates will function as engineering technology professionals, thus, serves the engineering technology profession. A Mixed-method consisting of sequential exploratory and explanatory was designed for data collection.
