Mechanical Design Technology - Milwaukee Area Technical College

Mechanical Design Technology from Milwaukee Area Technical College is a Campus Associate Mechanical Engineering degree that prepares you for a Engineering career. Overview ? Mechanical Design Technology is an associate degree program designed to prepare you for employment as a mechanical drafter/designer in a design engineering department. Career Outlook ? The employment outlook is favorable for mechanical drafters/designers having current training involving computer-aided design and drafting (CADD) systems. Manufacturing environments, contract engineers and engineering consulting firms employ mechanical design technicians. For the most part, their duties involve applying learned and developed technical knowledge to solving design problems in the creation of a product. CADD systems will be used to create two- and three-dimensional orthographic and pictorial multiview drawings of mechanical engineering detail, assembly and tooling. Program Learning Outcomes ? Employers expect you as a program graduate to be able to: Prepare orthographic and pictorial mechanical engineering detail, assembly and tooling drawings, including design dimensioning and tolerancing, using a computer-aided design and drafting system Prepare three-dimensional (parametric, dimension-driven) models, assemblies and drawings Communicate mechanical engineering information using appropriate college-level technical language, both orally and in writing Apply analytical mathematics (algebra and trigonometry), and graphic knowledge and skills to the solution of mechanical engineering problems; e.g., statics, strength of materials, mechanisms and design of machine elements Possible Careers: Design/Drafting Design Engineer Mechanical Designer Mechanical Drafter View more details on Milwaukee Area Technical College .
