PURPOSE: This program prepares students to work as technicians in the field of mechanical-electrical engineering. Graduates will be able to specify maintenance processes, solve problems in fabrication, design mechanical devices for manufacturing, and troubleshoot mechanical processes. Students find jobs as Engineering assistants, planners, designers, and CAD operators.
By the completion of this program, students will be expected to demonstrate an intermediate level of competency in the following skills:
- Successfully work in teams and display professional ethics.
- Design and execute engineering projects.
- Articulate the process of design, as well as changes from the initial design to the final product in written and oral contexts.
- Calculate and convert between US Customary and SI Units, and apply basic algebra, geometry, and trigonometry concepts.
- Solve engineering problems using computational tools.
PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS AND SPECIAL CONDITIONS: Students must meet JTCC admission requirements. Students may need to complete placement tests in English and mathematics. Visit www.jtcc.edu/placement for all course placement options. If students have deficiencies in English and/or mathematics, JTCC offers developmental and prerequisite courses to prepare students for the curriculum. New students should visit the Advising Center and returning students their faculty advisor for more information.
