Accredited by ETAC of ABET
This major develops concepts employed by manufacturing industries to increase productivity, reduce cost, and efficiently use tools and machinery. Emphasis is on the areas of manufacturing, process planning, CAD/CAM, production techniques, and the application of mathematics and computers. Students must complete the coursework in four categories: general education, major requirements, directed electives, and additional requirements, which requires between 128-136 credits..
For all majors a minimum grade of C- is required in all courses in the major, all additional course requirements as well as courses in the General Education, Math and Natural Science, Written & Oral Communication.
A minor is not required with this major.
