Overview
Centennial College’s Mechanical Engineering Technology – Design program will offer courses that combine engineering theory and practice, focusing on the design and development of various mechanical devices and equipment. You’ll gain a thorough grounding in engineering sciences and skills, including computer-assisted drafting and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) used in the industry.
About one-quarter of the time in this advanced diploma engineering program will be spent on project work. The projects will simulate workplace assignments while relating classroom theory to the actual design, manufacture and testing of projects.
In addition, this program will introduce you to finite element analysis using ANSYS software.
Co-op Option
The co-op option will allow you to gain hands-on experience while you complete three co-op work terms as an employee in the field. This experience not only allows you to put classroom learning into practice but will also provide valuable contacts for your future career.
To participate in this co-op option, you must complete an application process in the second semester. If academically qualified, you may be admitted to the co-op program.
When you graduate, your diploma will highlight the co-op credential.
