Imagine you could take an idea for a new smart product and bring it to life. Take a conceptual design, optimize it, do mechanical engineering analysis and create a prototype that may include user configurable options, intelligent control and sensors. As you design and prototype, you also plan how it will be manufactured with the latest automation and robotic equipment.<br>Work Integrated Learning methodology uses projects in many of the courses. Students have the opportunity to design and build products to reinforce the theory, rather than just theory and assignments.<br>Students also have an opportunity to participate in extracurricular activities including our Eco-car project, which is a student designed and built super mileage concept car. The car has placed as high as second in the world at the Shell Eco-marathon Drivers World Championship. There may also be opportunities for students to attend a short two-week international exchange to visit and learn in another country.<br>The Design and Manufacturing Engineering Technology program is a two-year diploma offered at Saskatchewan Polytechnic, Saskatoon Campus, Idylwyld Dr. <br>Saskatchewan Polytechnic's experienced instructors and leading-edge lab equipment provide an exceptional hands-on learning experience. The program enables your creativity and gives you the engineering and manufacturing tools and expertise that you need to bring ideas to life.<br><br>Your Career<br>Design and manufacturing engineering technologists are practical thinkers with a flair for creative problem solving. They have a unique ability to visualize how things work and give ideas practical form and function. Career opportunities range from design and drafting, to production quality control, to CNC equipment programming and operation. Or you could work in product design, prototype development, mechatronics, 3D solid modelling, or advanced stress analysis.
