Mechanical Engineering Technology (MET) is an engineering technology discipline that prepares the students for successful careers, continued professional growth and responsible citizenship.The ultimate goal of MET is to gain knowledge, solve local and national problems requiring technology based solutions.This program includes courses that are directed at both computer-aided manufacturing and computer-aided design and drafting. Individuals interested in manufacturing technology apply fundamental principles of mechanical design and manufacturing processes to new and existing manufacturing systems. Courses focus on manufacturing planning and management, automated manufacturing systems, quality control, and robotics. Computer-aided design and drafting is an essential component of the design procedure; courses focus on computer graphics and applied mechanical design.
