Advanced Manufacturing Engineering Technologist and Technician

The Advanced Manufacturing Engineering Technologist and Technician program is designed to train the students and workforce in high growth and high demand technologies such as; Laser Scanning, 3D printing of Plastics and Metals, use Coordinate Measuring Machines and CNC programing –Operator in addition to Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM). The program offers hands-on experience to become technicians who are able to help analyze, design, and manufacture products, to communicate professionally both orally and in writing, and to work on team-based project. The Certification of Achievement and/or Associate Degree in Science will be awarded upon successful completion of required courses.

As Manufacturing is evolving from a highly labor-intensive process to an increasingly sophisticated set of new technological processes, California Community Colleges have to build Guided Pathways and fill the pipeline of highly skilled employees. Many of the new occupations in advanced manufacturing require workers to be skilled in use of sophisticated equipment such as Laser Scanning, 3D printing of Plastics and Metals, use Coordinate Measuring Machines and CNC programing –Operator in addition to Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM). To accommodate and to train the workforce in these high growth and high demand technologies, a stackable Certificate program without any prerequisite is developed in Engineering Technology Discipline. This program is mapped to the skills and knowledge as described in SOC 17-3029 of Bureau of Labor Statistics. Upon completion of the Certificate Of Achievement, the rigor of the program is intensified to the standards of Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology (ABET), which has the requirement of Calculus, Physics and Chemistry for the completion of Associate of Science Degree. One of the integral part of the program is a Capstone course for the needed Hands-On skills and Strong Workforce Apprenticeship Program (SWAG) to ease the placement and employment of the certificate completers. This Advanced Manufacturing program is funded through the round one of the Strong Workforce Program.
