Mechanical Engineering Technology Program

The Mechanical Engineering Technology (MET) program is designed for those who want an applied engineering career with an hands-on, practical approach. The emphasis in the MET program is placed on understanding how engineering principles are applied in practice rather than on the scientific concepts and mathematical methods used in the derivation of new technologies.

At the same time, the program goes beyond the teaching of current procedures, so that the graduates are enabled to adapt to the changing needs of industry. Graduates find careers in many technological fields, including plant operations and management, quality assurance, product and manufacturing systems design, testing and evaluation, technical sales, and environmental testing and enforcement.
