Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering Technology
Typically the work of the engineering
technologist is more hands-on and less math-intensive than that
of the engineer. Working with an engineer, a mechanical engineering
technologist (MET) may refine designs or develop new ideas and
prepare design layouts and working drawings. METs may also work
in areas
such as plant maintenance or research and development, as laboratory
technicians, as production assistants, cost estimators, or in
quality assurance and control. Click

the differences between mechanical engineering technology and
mechanical engineering.
Our program offers comprehensive
training for a career as an engineering technologist in the mechanical
engineering field. Course work is designed to familiarize the
student with both the basic theory and practical applications
common to current industrial practice. To learn more about the
