The mechanical engineering technology (MET) program is accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission (ETAC) of ABET, http://www.abet.org/. The MET program offers areas of concentration in manufacturing systems, mechanical systems design, nuclear systems, and marine systems. Students in this program take common courses in areas such as computer-aided drafting, statics, strength of materials, dynamics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, automation and controls, and computer solid modeling. The program culminates in a senior project that integrates course work with a practical project assignment in the student's area of interest. To satisfy the upper-division general education requirements, students are required to complete a minor within the College of Engineering and Technology or the College of Sciences. Graduates should be qualified for application positions in mechanical product design, development and manufacturing, mechanical system operation and maintenance, field operations, and various other technical functions.
