Notes:
- For an explanation of why General Education courses are included in this Program, please refer to the Section on General Education for an explanation of its Purpose and Requirements.
- This plan assumes the student is eligible to enroll in College Level Courses (designated as 100 +, e.g., ACC 102 Prin Accounting II Managerial, HST 131 Latin American History I, MTH 221 Calc with Analytic Geom III). Placement results will determine College Level Readiness in English and Mathematics.
Upon completion of this program, graduates will be able to:
- Design, develop, and implement a mechatronics system, including components like sensors and output devices;
- Identify main components of programmable logic controllers, their functions, and classification;
- Apply principles of engineering graphics to prepare detailed drawings using CAD software; and
- Recognize and explain functions of control elements of a closed-loop system.
