Baccalaureate Degree Programs - General

Special Requirements for Majors
Students enrolled in the Department of Engineering and Technology who earn less than a "C" in any English, mathematics, sciences, or major course required in their curriculum must repeat the course during the next quarter that it is offered. Major courses are those courses offered by the department.

Major Comprehensive Examination
To satisfy the institutional requirements for a comprehensive examination, all students in Engineering Technology are required to take an exit examination administered by the Department.
 
Mechanical  Engineering Technology

Accredited by the Technology Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology.
The mechanical engineering technology curriculum provides an opportunity for a student to receive comprehensive engineering experience which will enable him to design machinery, test materials and supervise production and engineering projects. A graduate of the mechanical engineering technology program is qualified to assume the responsibilities of positions such as:

Machine Designer - designs machines and instruments for industry.

Mechanical Engineering Technologist - works with mechanical engineers on design and production projects using CAD and CAM as techniques.

Quality Control Supervisor - supervises incoming materials and outgoing products as well as manages personnel to assure quality.

Project Supervisor - manages technical personnel and materials to implement engineering projects.

Systems Test Technologist - participates in testing systems to determine if they meet design specifications.
