The Multidisciplinary Engineering Technology (MXET) program equips students for roles that demand expertise in technical challenges and systems integrating principles from multiple engineering technology fields. This degree offers flexibility, providing a solid foundation in electronic and mechanical systems, complemented by a 29-hour concentration area. Graduates gain a thorough technical education and often pursue engineering and technology positions aligned with their specialization. The MXET curriculum starts with a robust base in engineering mathematics and sciences, followed by a core technical sequence covering mechanical, electronic, and embedded systems/software fundamentals, principles, and design concepts. Students engage in various open-ended projects throughout their studies, focusing on designing, implementing, testing, and assessing mechanical and electronic hardware and software systems. A standout feature of the program is that most technical courses include hands-on lab work with cutting-edge equipment and industry-standard design and analysis software. The technical training is enhanced with courses in written and oral communication and technical project management. A team-based, industry-sponsored capstone design sequence offers a demanding opportunity to apply technical, managerial, and communication skills to address real-world issues.
