Manufacturing Engineering Technology, Associate
Program Description
The manufacturing engineering technology associate’s degree program prepares you to work with traditional and modern manufacturing equipment and methods in today’s high-tech manufacturing environment. Graduates will have theoretical and practical knowledge in traditional manufacturing processes such as turning, milling, foundry and welding along with newer technologies such as robotics, CAD (computer-aided drafting), and CAM (computer-aided manufacturing).
Throughout the program, students acquire cross-disciplinary skills in manufacturing, computer applications, electronics and mechanical technology that are in high demand in industry.
Program Learning Outcomes
- Communicate in a technical environment
- Analyze mechanical systems by applying math, science, and/or engineering equations and techniques
- Use technical tools to solve engineering problems
