Now more than ever, the world is deeply influenced by technology. If you have an interest in technology and its applications, there's no better time to enter the field. The technology program is designed to teach you an understanding of technical concepts as well as how to apply them in industrial settings. Learn how engineering, mathematics and technical management come together to help you operate and maintain any technological system. Students who choose to pursue manufacturing engineering technology are introduced to the diverse areas of manufacturing systems and processes. The exciting field of manufacturing is comprised of many growing areas such as CNC machining, automation, robotics, plastics processing, quality control, and computer-aided design and manufacturing, to name just a few. Since the manufacturing environment requires engineering technologists to handle a wide range of tasks, technologists must be trained in many areas within the field. The emphasis in manufacturing engineering technology produces students with both a diverse theoretical education and the hands-on skills needed to succeed within any area of manufacturing. Students who graduate with this emphasis quickly obtain industrial employment at both large and small companies, with outstanding compensation.
