Engineering Technology - Mechanical Engineering Technician

2-year, Ontario College Diploma Program

Program Courses

NOTE:  This program has gone through the process of "Program Renewal" and the following represents the new, revised course curriculum for Fall, 2012.

NOTE: This curriculum shares a common first 2 semesters with the Mechanical Techniques certificate program. This common core provides students with the option to continue on after the first year, for 2 additional semesters to earn BOTH the Mechanical Engineering Technician (2 year diploma) AND the Mechanical Techniques (1 year certificate), after only two years of study.

NOTE: Some of the following new Course Decription links below do not link up properly to the related Course Descriptions yet. The links to the new Course Decriptions are expected to link up by mid/late February, 2012.
In the meantime for general reference purposes, feel free to check out the links to the former curriculum found in the lower portion of this page.
