Pre-Engineering Technology is a four-year program that affords students the opportunity to enter the workforce or continue their education at a two or four-year technical school, college, or university. Students are prepared for entry-level employment in diverse fields associated with electronics, robotics, automation, software development, and other areas of engineering and technology. Students in the program are exposed to a curriculum designed to provide them with the skills needed to be successful in college and today’s careers.
Pre-Engineering Technology students take 3 courses as part of the program:
Electronics Engineering Technology
Computer & Software Engineering
Mechanical & Robotics Engineering
Students also experience Engineering Design coursework, learning about the design process, engineering documentation, Solidworks 3D computer-aided design, and other fundamental concepts of engineering. Pre-Engineering Technology curriculum also emphasizes personal and professional skills -- such as technical literacy, collaboration, communication, problem-solving, and critical thinking -- to properly develop workforce ready students for careers or post-secondary education.
