Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering Technology
The Bachelor's Degree in
Mechanical Engineering Technology offers students a broad background in
engineering technology and the technical skills needed to support the
design, testing, and manufacture of products, systems, and devices. Students
in the bachelor's degree program are prepared to apply in-depth concepts to
the analysis, development, implementation, and oversight of mechanical
systems and processes. Career opportunities for graduates of this program
include support operations in manufacturing, plant management, product
testing, quality assurance, and engineering.
The amount of time it takes for a student to complete this degree will
depend upon the individual student's course load. Students may earn the Associate’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering Technology (68 credits) as
they work towards the Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering Technology
(127 credits). Many of the courses taken toward this degree can be applied
toward a related certificate program,
allowing students to earn additional credentials as they pursue their
degree.
Accreditation The Bachelor of Science degree in
Mechanical Engineering Technology is accredited by the Technology
Accreditation Commission of ABET, Inc., 111 Market Place, Suite 1050,
Baltimore, MD, (410)347-7700.
Suggested Program of Study - Total Credits: 127
