Program Description
Manufacturing Engineering Technology is an applied engineering field that looks for better ways to manufacture products. This includes reducing cycle times, maintaining quality, increasing safety, and keeping costs reasonable. The field emphasizes engineering problem solving using a practical, hands-on approach rather than the complex analysis that a design engineer would typically use. A person in the field of engineering technology (an ET) often works closely with design engineers and technicians. They have the rewarding challenge of working with many departments in the company, including production, logistics, design, and testing. The curriculum focuses on hands-on experiences to prepare the graduate for an exciting career in manufacturing.
