Manufacturing/Engineering Technology Associate of Applied Science Degree (100-104 credits)

This two-year program integrates conventional manufacturing techniques with computer integrated manufacturing skills. Computer aided drafting (CAD) and computer aided manufacturing (CAM) are used as basic tools in the manufacturing engineering process. In addition to technical training, you will receive a solid education in mathematics and physical science, along with human relations and computer skills courses.

Graduates typically enter the workforce as either computer aided design drafters, entry-level machinists, or computer numerical control (CNC) machine operators or engineering assistants. With additional on-the-job experience, this training facilitates movement into fields such as tool and die maker, quality control inspector, computer aided manufacturing (CAM) programmer, or lower-level supervisory positions.

For transfer to a four-year institution in engineering, additional or alternate transfer courses will be recommended.
