Overview

The Electrical Engineering Technology - Smart Manufacturing option degree will include three new courses not currently offered as part of the Electrical Engineering Technology degree. The new courses will focus on Smart Manufacturing concepts, such as cybersecurity in manufacturing as well as instrumentation and control as it relates to automated systems. Students will also be required to complete a capstone project course in collaboration with an industry partner. The program is a mixture of general education and technical courses.

 

 

Application Requirements

1. MTC Application for Admission and non-refundable application fee.

2. Final high school transcript (or GED results) and college transcripts (if applicable).

3. Successful completion of the Basic Skills Assessment (ACCUPLACER) and Technology Skills Test (TST) is required. Any college foundation courses recommended by placement assessment results are also required.

  1. 4. ACCUPLACER math score of 70 or higher or Next-Generation ACCUPLACER (AAF) of 231 or higher required to take the first mathematics course in the engineering program.

Career Opportunities

The Smart Manufacturing option will equip graduates with key skills in both instrumentation and controls engineering and information technology. Students will learn to install, operate, troubleshoot, and maintain automated systems. These systems will make use of networks of advanced sensors, data analytics, and information and communication technologies to improve manufacturing productivity. After completing the program, students will be able to build careers in areas such as electrical and electronics engineering and instrumentation and controls engineering. Potential positions include:

 

1. Electrical Engineering Technician

  1. 2. Instrumentation and/or Process Control Technician
  2. 3. Smart Factory Technician
  3. 4. Maintenance Technician
  4. 5. Cybersecurity/Industrial Internet of Things Technician
  5. 6. PLC Programmer/Technician
