Mechanical Engineering Technology

Mechanical engineering technicians are problem solvers who study system design, and the production, installation and monitoring of products. You will learn how and why a system or mechanism works by studying materials, strength of materials, machine design, computer aided drafting and microcomputer applications.

This degree program provides you with practical, hands-on experience, and prepares you to enter the workforce as a mechanical engineering technician or offers the opportunity to transfer to a four-year college to pursue a bachelor's degree.

The Associate in Applied Science in Mechanical Engineering Technology is accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission of ABET, www.abet.org, under the General Criteria and the Program Criteria for Mechanical Engineering Technology and Similarly Named Programs.

This program is offered by the Engineering, Architecture and Manufacturing Department.
