A Career in Mechanical Engineering Technology
Mechanical engineering technology includes the integration of methods,
materials, machinery, and human resources found in today's
modern industries. Engineering, scientific, and manufacturing
principles are applied to the following technical areas:
design and development, manufacturing and production;
quality control and cost analysis; the generation, transmission,
and utilization of mechanical energy, fluid energy,
and thermodynamic energy.
Program Overview
The bachelor of science degree program prepares graduates
for technical positions in manufacturing and production
industries. Mechanical engineering technologists fill a wide variety
of industrial positions in product development,
manufacturing, production, supervision, and plant operations.
The primary goal of the curriculum is to provide graduates
with a solid technical foundation which will enable
them to adapt and grow into a wide variety of employment
opportunities. The mechanical engineering technology program is
accredited by the Technology Accreditation Commission
of ABET, Inc.
