Manufacturing Engineering Technology

Bachelor of Science Degree

The Bachelor of Science degree program in Manufacturing Engineering Technology is designed to provide students with a foundation of knowledge and hands-on experience that is required and utilized by the industry. The program offers traditional courses such as Statics, Strength of Materials, and Material Science providing graduates with a solid foundation of the field. The program also offers numerous technology-based and practical courses such as Computer Aided Design (CAD), Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM), Computer Numeric Control (CNC) Machining, Tooling for Composites, Electronic Packaging Applications, Electromechanical Control Systems, Robotics, and Statistical Quality Control providing students with a well-balanced and needed background in Manufacturing Engineering Technology. These technology-based courses are delivered through our state-of-the-art laboratories. Students also benefit from the required senior project that provides the students with a valuable integrating capstone experience. In addition, this program is designed to allow students to extend their knowledge and skills in other areas such as Automotive, Business, Construction, Electrical, Facility, and Mechanical to support different aspects of manufacturing.

This program is ideal for high school graduates and Mechanical Engineering Technology associate degree graduates who wish to enter careers in manufacturing process and systems design, operations, quality, continuous improvement, lean manufacturing, and sustainability.

This is a four-year program. Students may matriculate on a full-time or part-time basis. This program is accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission of ABET, www.abet.org.
