Students in Action

Applied Science

This Program offers exciting concentrations like bio-medical engineering technology, computer engineering technology, electro-mechanical engineering technology, geospatial engineering technology, geographic information science (GIS) and technology, goegraphic information science (GIS) and natural resource management, medical radiologic science and technology, medical or industrial technology management, or radiation technology/health physics.

Computer Networking and Information Technology

This program is designed for students interested in computer networking and information systems. The program objective includes training of students for the Information Technology (IT) workforce, preparation of students for graduate and professional school, and entrepreneurship among graduates. The students are prepared for IT positions, which require cutting edge technologies applied in the design, implementation, and maintenance of systems in traditionally diverse and complex computing environments. The program focuses on current technologies with an eye on the future to keep abreast with the changing technological landscape in industry.

Robotics and Automation Technology

The Robotics and Automation Technology program strives to achieve its mission in all aspects of its operations through innovative and engaging teaching, learning, and community outreach. Graduates of the program will gain the skills, experience and knowledge to pursue successful careers as technologists and managers of technology.

Mission

To provide world-class curricula and training designed to prepare superior practitioners, managers, and leaders in the field of Robotics and Automation Technology.

Changing dynamics in world competition have manufacturers using new technologies and management systems to increase productivity and quality. These companies are using Computer-Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) technologies, installing robotics and automated systems and adapting new management techniques and strategies to differentiate their companies, products, goods, and services from competitors. A key to success in the area of Industrial Technology is employing technologists and engineers to design, install, run and maintain these highly technical systems.

In Robotics and Automation Technology Program, students learn to use computer systems to program robots, run databases in inventory, payroll, project planning and scheduling, and purchasing. Students also have a chance to take a national professional Certified Technology Manager (CTM) certification exam from The Association of Technology, Management, and Applied Engineering (ATMAE).
