Manufacturing Engineering Technologists are people who like to make things, especially making them better, faster, and at a lower cost. They are “hands-on” people who also want to be part of the design process and they enjoy working with people as part of a team or as its leader. Typical job responsibilities include acting as a liaison between design engineering and the manufacturing operation or being deeply involved in manufacturing process development. Graduates from
The Manufacturing Engineering Technology program has a long history of success. In 1969 the Manufacturing Engineering Technology program was formed with a combination of the curriculum of the Machine Tool Technology program and the Academic Education program. Classes have continually changed over the years, however; our goal has remained the same – training technicians who are well prepared to take on today’s engineering and manufacturing challenges.
We invite you to learn more about what this program has to offer. Please contact us if you have any additional questions.
The Manufacturing Engineering Technology program trains students to become members of an engineering team. They provide technical assistance throughout the design and manufacturing process. The program includes extensive practice in traditional and computer-aided drafting, layout and design of fabricated products, the study of materials used in manufacturing, plant layout, materials handling, manufacturing processes, and the use of machines. Further study takes you into quality control, time and motion efficiency, tool and product design, and mold design. The Student Chapter of the Society for Manufacturing Engineers S218 provides a chance to learn more about industry and to interact and mentor with other engineers.
All tuition, fees, books, required tools, and related costs are the responsibility of the student. See estimated cost list.
