About the Program
Students will gain broad-based mechanical engineering technology skills to prepare for career opportunities in today's increasingly complex and sophisticated industry. Studies emphasize mechanical design using standard procedures, computer graphics and computer-based analysis. Students also study manufacturing processes and materials to understand the integration between design and manufacturing. Effective technical communications through verbal, written, graphic and computer skills are also stressed. The optional co-op stream includes three co-op work terms.
The Ontario Association of Certified Engineering Technicians and Technologists (OACETT) conditionally recognizes this program as meeting all the academic requirements for certification in the Certified Engineering Technologist (CET) category.
Program Outcomes
Apply the principles of physics and mathematics to analyze, design and solve mechanical engineering problems.
Apply manual, computer programming, and computer-aided design techniques in mechanical design and preparation of engineering documents.
Communicate technical information effectively, at appropriate levels through the use of written and oral language, graphics and computers.
Apply a knowledge of manufacturing processes and materials to mechanical engineering design.
Analyze, select and test materials and components for mechanical engineering design.
Understand the basics of mechanical/electrical systems including fluid transfer, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, hydraulic and pneumatic services.
Apply basic industrial engineering techniques.
Complete a major mechanical engineering design project including a formal technical report, working drawings and presentation.
Apply safety concepts that comply with safety regulations applicable to the manufacturing environment.
Acquire an increased appreciation and understanding of the concepts and values required to enhance the quality of life for self and others in the home, workplace and the local and global community through an exploration of selected broad goals of education in the areas of aesthetics, civic life, culture, personal development, society, work and the economy, science and technology.
Demonstrate an understanding of employer expectations with regard to academic, practical, and attitudinal skills.
Co-op Information
Co-op programs add value to your education. Earn while you apply what you learn in a real workplace environment. See the Co-op webpages.
The College cannot guarantee co-op employment. All co-op students are required to conduct an independent co-op job search in addition to the supports and services provided by the Department of Co-op Education.
Students are responsible for their own transportation and associated costs in order to complete work term requirements. Work locations may not always be readily accessible by public transportation.
