About Mechanical Engineering Technology
Students enrolled in the Mechanical Engineering
Technology program learn to convert engineering theory into working plans
in order to solve real world problems. Student use mathematic and scientific
concepts as well as computer related tools to solve design and manufacturing
problems that are pervasive in all manufacturing firms. Traditional engineering
subjects of physics, math, statics, materials and mechanisms are studied
as well as robotics, tool design, quality control, CAD, production planning
and cost estimating.
Graduates of this program are qualified to seek employment in product, tool
and machine design drafting, as well as working with manufacturing industrial
engineers as cost estimators, quality control technologists, and production
planners. Students may also choose to continue their education at a four-year
college or university to earn a bachelor’s degree in engineering technology.
