Courses required to meet graduation requirements in this curriculum
are offered during day hours only. Minimum time for completion:
five semesters full-time attendance. The Associate in Applied Science
degree is awarded graduates of this curriculum. The Mechanical
Engineering Technology curriculum prepares graduates to use basic
engineering principles and technical skills to design, develop, test, and
troubleshoot projects involving mechanical systems. Includes instruction
in principles of mechanics, applications to specific engineering
systems, design testing procedures, prototype and operational testing
and inspection procedures, manufacturing system-testing procedures,
test equipment operation and maintenance, computer applications,
critical thinking, planning and problem solving, and oral and written
communications. Graduates of the curriculum will find employment
opportunities in the manufacturing or service sectors of engineering
technology. Engineering technicians may obtain professional certification
by application to organizations such as ASQC, SME, and NICET.
