Electro-Mechanical Technology
Program Description:
The mission of this program is to educate students in technical management as it applies to
electro-mechanical technology and automation. Students develop their technical skills in the laboratory. Laboratory based course work is
provided in the areas of hydraulics, pneumatics, mechanical motion control, programmable logic controllers, servo and non-servo robotics, engines, electrical motors and generators, and industrial electricity. Emphasis is placed on data acquisition and feedback mechanisms and the use of various control devices including personal computers (PC's), programmable logic controllers (PLC's) and sequence controllers. Culminating experiences in management provide graduates with skills to become supervisors, project managers, production automation technicians and technical salespeople in the field.
