| The Mechanical Engineering Technology program is specifically designed to prepare students in the applied aspects of engineering. Mechanical Engineering Technology is a vital part of the engineering field. It requires the application of scientific and engineering knowledge combined with practical technical skills and methods in support of engineering activities. The program emphasizes the application of engineering principles to real-world industrial problems utilizing current up-to-date equipment and techniques. Mechanical Engineering Technology is the broadest of all engineering technology disciplines. Graduates are able to pursue careers in many segments of industry, with starting salaries averaging over $30,000 per year. The Mechanical Engineering Technology program at Broome Community College is divided into four major areas: Engineering Materials, Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics, Mechanical Drawing and Design - CAD, and Manufacturing Processes and Quality Control. The program is designed to prepare graduates for their profession by providing a solid background in the major areas of Mechanical Engineering Technology, but also allows students to continue towards a Baccalaureate Degree at various colleges and universities. Eligible students can receive on-the-job experience directly related to their field of study by registering for MET 298, Cooperative Work Experience. The program is accredited by the Technology Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology (TAC/ABET). SEQUENCE OF COURSES: This model is a two-year course schedule for students meeting all program requirements and deciding to pursue full-time study. Schedules will be redesigned for those requiring preparatory courses or those deciding to pursue part-time study. |

| After BCC… then what? | ||||
| The employment prospects in mechanical engineering technology
are excellent. Graduates have many options locally, statewide and nationally.
Product design, production planning, quality control, process engineering,
production or system operation, manufacturing systems, field service, or
product evaluation are all job possibilities.
BCC graduates currently work for the following local companies:
The MET graduate may choose to transfer directly into a bachelor of science program, or, with additional courses at BCC, into a four-year engineering program. The following colleges have articulation agreements with BCC:
These agreements allow MET graduates, who meet minimum GPA requirements, to enter their programs as Juniors. BCC students typically find that their GPA's increase at the transferring institution due to the strength of BCC's Mechanical Engineering Technology program. Transfer opportunities also exist outside of New York. Click here for details on Transfer Opportunities. |
