Mechanical Engineering - Certificate of Achievement
Mechanical engineering uses principles of motion, energy, and force to design and manufacture everything from cars and satellites across various fields, including healthcare, transportation, and energy. The Mechanical Engineering Certificate of Achievement provides students with a solid foundation in engineering, science, and mathematics, which is essential for successfully transferring to a four-year university to further their engineering studies. This certificate also opens pathways to internship opportunities, offering students practical experience that enhances their academic journey and career prospects.
Program Learning Outcomes
- Acquire, develop, and refine the foundational skills in mathematics, physics, and science necessary to be successful in engineering courses.
- Demonstrate the ability to write computer programs and apply them towards solving engineering problems.
- Effectively apply techniques, skills, and computational tools necessary for mechanical engineering.
