Mechanical Engineering Technology provides the right combination of theory and hands-on training to prepare students for employment opportunities in the design, manufacture and set-up of mechanical equipment such as engines, power generation and control systems, and manufacturing systems (including robots). Specific job responsibilities include working as a designer, computer aided design/drafting, instrumentation and testing of machines and system, and developing and troubleshooting manufacturing systems.

Can students who major in Mechanical Engineering Technology transfer to a four-year college or university?
Students may choose to participate in the Joint Admissions Program with the New Jersey Institute of Technology. Many other four-year colleges and universities will apply some of the courses taken toward a bachelor's degree.

Are there any requirements that must be satisfied before taking courses in the major?
Algebra I is a prerequisite for all majors. Algebra I competency must be verified with a passing score on the College's placement test. Students must also have a grade of "C" or better in high school algebra II and geometry.

How long will it take to complete this degree?
Students who do not need developmental coursework can complete the degree in two years. They can shorten the amount of time by taking courses in the summer and winter sessions.
