The Mechatronics and Advanced Manufacturing Technology program equips students for careers in modern manufacturing. As automation becomes increasingly prevalent in industry, technicians must master advanced skills including diagnostics, analytics, troubleshooting, and hands-on maintenance. Participants gain both theoretical knowledge and practical experience in key trades like machining, welding, metal fabrication, and electrical systems. The curriculum also teaches students to create technical reports for managing automated manufacturing operations.
This program fosters applied research, product development, and commercialization initiatives. It incorporates cutting-edge technologies such as CNC programming, renewable energy systems, and computer-controlled autonomous systems including hydraulic, pneumatic, electronic, and robotic applications.
The first two semesters align with the globally recognized Siemens Mechatronic Systems Certification (SMSC) program, allowing graduates to earn SMSC Levels 1 and 2. Completers will possess the technical expertise to operate, maintain, and troubleshoot mechatronic systems at a professional technician level.
Semesters 3 and 4 focus on advanced manufacturing concepts including sustainable practices, engineering resource planning, lean manufacturing, business communications, and operations. These principles are reinforced through hands-on training in machining, metalwork, welding, and electrical systems - preparing graduates for the challenges of Industry 4.0. Program completers will be qualified for various engineering technologist and technician roles across the manufacturing sector.
