Course Overview

The electromechanical engineering technology (EMET) program was created in response to an industrial need to hire engineering technology graduates with abilities across electrical and mechanical disciplines. Students that complete this program are prepared for careers in fields such as control systems, automation, manufacturing and Industry 4.0. As of January 2021, the program is one of 12 Bachelor of Science in Electromechanical Engineering Technology programs in the United States that has ABET accreditation. Additionally, as of January 2021, the program is one of 11 programs recognized by the Automation Federation in their Automation Industry Competency Model.

Our EMET curriculum contains a technical core comprised of fundamental mathematics, physical sciences, circuits, analog and digital electronics, statics, materials, fluids, machine design and computer programming. This core prepares students for the advanced technical courses and topics within the curriculum including industrial instrumentation, sensors, programmable logic controllers, industrial electronics, actuators, and control systems. Technical specialties within the program allow students to incorporate other advanced topics such as robotics and computer networking. Throughout the curriculum, students are trained in the use of industry-standard technology and software. The EMET education provides graduates with the skills sought by industry, the abilities needed for successful careers, and the tools for continuous improvement.
