Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Mechanical Engineering Technology] From Eastern Washington University

Before graduation, each student will participate in a design project or an internship in industry to gain industrial experience during his or her academic career before employment. The emphasis of this program is the application of engineering principles to the solution of practical problems. MET graduates are in great demand and are employed in a variety of interesting, high-tech careers throughout the state and region. Employment opportunities are available in mechanical design, industrial engineering technology, industrial management, manufacturing, CAD, applied research and sales and service.

Upon graduation students will be able to:

a.????? An ability to select and apply the knowledge, techniques, skills and modern tools of the discipline to broadly-defined engineering technology activities;
b.???? An ability to select and apply a knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering and technology to engineering technology problems that require the application of principles and applied procedures or methodologie;
c.????? An ability to conduct standard tests and measurements, to conduct, analyze and interpret experiments, and to apply experimental results to improve processes;
d.???? An ability to design systems, components, or processes for broadly-defined engineering technology problems appropriate to program educational objectives;
e.????? An ability to function effectively as a member or leader on a technical team;
f.?????? An ability to identify, analyze and solve broadly-defined engineering technical problems;
g.???? An ability to apply written, oral, and graphical communication in both technical and nontechnical environments; and an ability to identify and use appropriate technical literature;
h.???? An understanding of the need for and an ability to engage in self-directed continuing professional development;
i.?????? An understanding of the need for and a commitment to address professional and ethical responsibilities including a respect for diversity;
j.?????? A knowledge of the impact of engineering technology solutions in a societal and global context; and
