Manufacturing Engineering Technology AAS


Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Degree and Certificate Programs

Two-Year Associate of Applied Science Degree

The Manufacturing Engineering Technology AAS prepares students to apply basic engineering principles and technical skills to the identification and resolution of production problems in the manufacture of products. Includes instruction in machine operations, production line operations, engineering analysis, systems analysis, instrumentation, physical controls, automation, computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), manufacturing planning, quality control, and informational infrastructure.


The degree is beneficial for students who are new to design and fabrication technology and those who are currently in the field but looking to expand their skill base and increase their career opportunities. Students who have a non-technology career in another field may find this degree optimum for cross training into the CAD/CAM and manufacturing technology discipline.
