Facilities
The Engineering Technology curriculum is, by its nature, based in theory and experiential
learning. In order to apply theories learned in the classroom, students experience
a wide variety of state-of-the-art laboratories. The Engineering Technology program
houses over 15 student laboratories, including:
- Automation & Robotics
- Computer Numerical Control (CNC)
- Inspection & Quality Control (Metrology)
- Destructive & Non-Destructive Testing
- Precision Machining
- Foundry
- Plastics
- R&D
- CADD
- Rapid Prototyping
- Electricity & Electronics
- PLCs
- Hydraulics & Pneumatics
- Networking
- Concrete & Masonry
- Wood Processing
- Sheet Metal Forming
- Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) & Barcoding
- Welding
Internships
An internship is required for the Engineering Technology degree. While it is the student鈥檚
responsibility to secure the internship before graduation, UCM Career Services, Engineering
Technology faculty, and industrial alliances offer students valuable assistance in
obtaining the internship. Many students work their internship(s) during the summer;
however, more and more companies want students to work an extended internship, sometimes
called a co-op. This requires the student to either withdraw from UCM classes for
one semester or work the internship while taking classes during the spring or fall.
Typically, students are paid a competitive wage during the internship, and many times
it will directly lead to a job upon graduation.
