Mechatronics Engineering Technology Program ABET Information
Our Mission
The mission of the Mechatronics Engineering Technology program at UTC is to provide accessible education in the principles and application of technology and technology management, while preparing students to understand and be productive in the work environment.
Our Program Objectives
Graduates of this program will:
- be prepared to hold technical positions that require analysis, applied design, development, implementation, and oversight of mechatronic systems and automated processes.
- have the knowledge, problem-solving ability and hands-on skills to be successful in careers in the design, commissioning, testing, evaluation, technical sales, or maintenance of mechatronic systems.
- appreciate the need for, and will pursue, self-directed professional development opportunities, such as graduate work, additional trainings, and participation in professional organizations.
Our Student Outcomes
