Admissions Requirements |
|
Students can be accepted into the Electromechanical
Technology-Associate in Science-Career Option (Robotics and Automation
Technology); however, students should note that many of the program specific
courses have ENG and/or MAT prerequisites. |
|
Next Step |
|
Graduates of this program are qualified for entry-level
positions as electronic or manufacturing equipment technicians. Students may
also continue their education at the bachelor’s level. |
Electromechanical technicians install, maintain, troubleshoot, and repair a
wide range of computer-driven manufacturing equipment, automated control
equipment, and/or robotic systems. They must understand basic electronics and
computers order to work with a variety of equipment, systems, and manufacturing
processes. The employment outlook for electronic equipment technicians and
robotics technicians suggests strong employment opportunities in this field.
Students completing the Career Option have elective options when choosing Math
and Science courses, and must complete a cooperative work experience.
