Humber’s Mechanical Engineering Technology is an advanced diploma program that provides you with hands-on experience and the underlying foundational knowledge required to conceive, design, manufacture and operate engineering systems. Working on projects in state-of-the-art laboratories and design spaces, you will work on finding solutions for design and manufacturing challenges in engineering systems. The curriculum covers the theory and the skills required for: automation systems computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software-mastercam engineering design using leading industrial softwares manufacturing engineering systems operation design and sustainability prototyping and proof of concept applications program computer numerical control (CNC) machine tools project engineering and management robotics testing and maintenance of engineering systems Our program builds upon the solid technical foundation of the Mechanical Engineering Technician diploma program. The manufacturing and basic design skills acquired in the first two years of the technician program are enhanced in the third year by focusing on detailed design and advanced manufacturing technologies. The program offers a co-op option to integrate work with learning and provides graduates with a chance to apply their skills in the industry. The third year features a capstone project in which students liaise with industry partners to produce a working prototype and a full design and manufacturing package for industry.
