Manufacturing Engineering Technology,<br />
A.S. Degree<br />
Program Design<br />
The Manufacturing Engineering Technology program is designed to be a<br />
broad-based engineering science transfer program that provides a foundation<br />
of mathematics <strong>and</strong> basic science, integrated with program components<br />
focusing on introductory manufacturing technology <strong>and</strong> general education.<br />
The program emphasizes the application of mathematics <strong>and</strong> principles of<br />
engineering science to technical manufacturing in order to prepare students for<br />
transfer to baccalaureate programs in engineering <strong>and</strong> engineering sciences<br />
with a manufacturing engineering focus. The program also prepares students for<br />
employment opportunities in entry <strong>and</strong> second-level positions in manufacturing<br />
<strong>and</strong> industrial technology fields requiring a combination of technical preparation<br />
<strong>and</strong> a strong general education background.<br />
<strong>College</strong> of Technology - Technology Pathway Program<br />
The Manufacturing Engineering Technology program, through the Connecticut<br />
<strong>College</strong> of Technology Pathways Program, provides for direct entry into baccalaureate<br />
industrial <strong>and</strong> engineering technology programs at Central Connecticut<br />
State University. Students may enter CCSU engineering technology<br />
programs through the Manufacturing Engineering Technology A.S. degree<br />
program at MCC <strong>and</strong>, upon successful completion of the program, continue<br />
on to CCSU with a full two years of credit towards a baccalaureate degree<br />
in industrial technology or engineering technology. For more information, call<br />
Robert Fortier at 860-512-2623.<br />
Curriculum<br />
Students may enroll in this program full- or part-time. Courses are offered<br />
during day <strong>and</strong> evening hours. Preparation for the Manufacturing Engineering<br />
Technology program includes a high school diploma or equivalent with one year<br />
of physics <strong>and</strong> two years of mathematics including Algebra I <strong>and</strong> Algebra II.<br />
For students not prepared for the required mathematics <strong>and</strong> English courses,<br />
MCC offers a wide range of developmental <strong>and</strong> preparatory courses. (See<br />
Pre-Technical Education Preparation, page 27.)<br />

Learning Outcomes<br />
Upon successful completion of all Manufacturing Engineering Technology<br />
degree program requirements, graduates will<br />
1. Demonstrate team-oriented human skills that permit effective participation<br />
in multicultural work <strong>and</strong> social environments.<br />
2. Apply appropriate mathematical <strong>and</strong> scientific principles to manufacturing<br />
applications.<br />
3. Demonstrate proficiency in engineering fundamentals to analyze<br />
manufacturing engineering problems <strong>and</strong> make appropriate decisions.<br />
4. Assist in the design process to meet effective production objectives.<br />
5. Possess knowledge of engineering materials <strong>and</strong> be able to demonstrate<br />
competency in their selection <strong>and</strong> utilization.<br />
6. Apply knowledge <strong>and</strong> skills to develop, interpret, <strong>and</strong> select appropriate<br />
manufacturing processes.<br />
7. Maintain a practical knowledge of state-of-the-art hardware <strong>and</strong> software<br />
in support of manufacturing systems.<br />
8. Be aware of <strong>and</strong> use available information <strong>and</strong> data sources in support<br />
of the manufacturing systems.<br />
9. Apply skills <strong>and</strong> knowledge to effectively <strong>and</strong> efficiently plan, organize,<br />
implement, measure, <strong>and</strong> control manufacturing processes.<br />
10. Demonstrate a thorough knowledge <strong>and</strong> underst<strong>and</strong>ing of engineering<br />
graphics as well as conventional drafting practices, such as orthographic<br />
<strong>and</strong> isometric projection, section, detail, auxiliary views, descriptive<br />
geometry, as well as geometric dimensioning <strong>and</strong> tolerancing (GD&T)<br />
basics.<br />
11. Demonstrate a high level of proficiency in the use of state-of-the-art<br />
computer-aided design (CAD) software <strong>and</strong> be able to respond positively<br />
to continuous software revisions <strong>and</strong> upgrades.<br />
12. Demonstrate a thorough underst<strong>and</strong>ing of 2-dimensional (2-D) <strong>and</strong><br />
