Mechanical Engineering Technology, B.S.
|
|
Program Description
Graduates are capable of applying engineering principles to today’s industrial problems. In the four-year Bachelor’s degree programs, emphasis is placed on necessary theoretical concepts as well as practical laboratory experience in manufacturing processes and techniques, instrumentation and controls, and equipment and machinery design, and performance testing and evaluation. Particular emphasis is placed on studies meeting the needs of those industries which are prevalent in the Southeast.
Program Student Learning Outcomes
Students who successfully complete this program will be able to:
- Apply knowledge, techniques, skills and modern tools of mathematics,
- science, engineering, and technology to solve broadly defined engineering problems appropriate to the discipline.
- Design systems, components, or processes meeting specified needs for
- broadly defined engineering problems appropriate to the discipline.
- Apply written, oral, and graphical communication in broadly defined technical and nontechnical environments; and an ability to identify and use appropriate technical literature.
- Conduct standard tests, measurements, and experiments and to analyze
- and interpret the results to improve processes.
- Function effectively as a member as well as a leader on technical teams.
This program is a part of the Southern Polytechnic College of Engineering and Engineering Technology .
