Program Description
The Associate of Applied Science degree in Mechanical Engineering Technology (AAS.MET) is designed to provide a high-quality educational opportunity that prepares students to achieve career goals in the field of MET. Mechanical engineering technology involves understanding how products and machinery work as well as how to design, fabricate or use them. Examples of societal improvements due to mechanical engineering technology include engines, air-conditioned environments, and jet aircraft. Students graduating from this program must successfully complete a minimum of 12 semester hours of management and/or technical course work at Rowan College at Burlington County.
Apply knowledge, techniques, skills, and modern tools of mathematics, science, engineering, and technology to solve well-defined engineering problems appropriate to the discipline
Design solutions for well-defined technical problems and assist with engineering design of systems, components, or processes appropriate to the discipline
Conduct standard tests, measurements, and experiments to analyze and interpret results
Function effectively as a member of a technical team
Apply written, oral, and graphical communication in both technical and non-technical environments; and identify and use appropriate technical literature
