Program Goal
Manufacturing engineering technicians operate metal-removing equipment such as lathes, drill presses, milling machines and grinders, many of which are computer numerically controlled (CNC). Manufacturing engineering technicians may specialize in operating one type of machine or they may be required to work equally well on several. Students must understand the theory and applications of computer-aided design and manufacturing, machine design, facilities design, tool design, and process analysis. This program will enable students develop the skills and knowledge to begin their careers as either manufacturing technicians or computer control programmers and operators. Students can work in small machining shops or in manufacturing industries, such as machinery manufacturing and transportation equipment manufacturing.
To accommodate working students, some courses are available during the evening/weekends and students may enroll full or part-time. Students who complete the program requirements are awarded the Certificate of Achievement in Engineering Technology – Manufacturing Engineering Technician. Manufacturing engineering technicians will continue to play a key role in maintaining California’s competitive advantage in the market.
Also, the certificate is a response to address advanced manufacturing proposal outcomes that was funded through Strong Workforce Program this year.
