About the Program
Program Goal: Local
GE Pattern(s): None
Program Code: 44141.00CA
The Certificate of Achievement in Mechatronic Engineering is designed to cover the core mechatronic engineering courses needed to transfer to a four-year program leading to the Bachelor’s Degree in Mechatronic Engineering at most four-year colleges and universities. The curriculum includes lower division courses in Mechatronic Engineering. Major requirements can vary by university and catalog year. Students should consult with a counselor and utilize Assist.org to ensure this is the most efficient pathway for their academic and career goals.
Program Learning Outcome(s): Upon successful completion of the program, the student will be able to:
- Use the tools of Mathematics and Physics to solve engineering problems.
- Demonstrate an ability to develop judgment in the solution of engineering problems by breaking problems down, solving each part, checking each solution and reassembling the problem for a final solution.
- Safely use and accurately interpret the output of standard measuring devices used in the mechatronic field.
- Demonstrate the ability to work cohesively in the team environment to solve engineering problems.
- Communicate the analysis of various materials, systems and solutions verbally and in industry-standard written form.
