B.S. in Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering Technology

Northern Kentucky University

The accredited Bachelor of Science in mechanical and manufacturing engineering technology focuses on the design and development of parts, processes, and systems. Under this program graduates will acquire knowledge, problem-solving ability, and hands-on skills to enter careers in the design, installation, manufacturing, testing, evaluation, technical sales, or maintenance of mechanical systems. In addition, graduates will have strengths in the analysis, applied design, development, implementation, or oversight of more advanced mechanical systems and processes.This bachelor’s degree program is designed to provide students with the knowledge and skills needed to succeed as engineers in today’s industry. Students are required to take cooperative education (''co-op'') in industry starting with their second year, which often continues and leads to full-time employment. Together with the study of engineering principles, design is the cornerstone of the mechanical and manufacturing engineering technology degree program.Accredited by the ETAC Accreditation Commission of ABET, https://www.abet.org.
