Why major in Manufacturing Engineering Technology?
This program is designed to prepare students for employment in the computer-operated manufacturing facilities of existing and emerging industries. It enables students to develop a broad background that can be applied to such areas as mechanical design, quality control, materials testing, facilities design, automation, stress analysis, and sales. Courses emphasize the application of current knowledge and practices to the solution of specific problems.

Upon completion of this program, graduates will be able to:
  • Select and specify materials for manufacturing applications based on principles of engineering mechanics, strength of materials, weight, corrosion, finish, and cost;
  • Demonstrate understanding of the principles and elements of automated controls, and the ability to select appropriate devices for manufacturing and various control processes;
  • Apply basic principles of blueprint reading to prepare detailed working drawings using computer aided design (CAD) skills;
  • Use American National Standards Institute (ANSI) protocol for sizing and tolerancing of mating parts, and apply geometric dimension and tolerancing (GD&T) techniques to engineering design;
  • Utilize 3D solid modeling CAD systems to create mechanical components and generate assembly designs;
  • Utilize CAD and computer aided manufacturing (CAM) software and hardware to integrate design, manufacturing, and production processes;
  • Apply standard testing techniques approved by ANSI, and perform quality control and inspection of products; and
  • Use computer numeric control (CNC), CAM, and coordinate measuring machines (CMM) in automated manufacturing and product inspection processes.
