The Engineering Technology, Mechanical Engineering Technology Option offered by New Jersey Institute of Technology. Our graduates typically have strengths in the analysis, applied design, development, implementation, or oversight of advanced mechanical systems and processes.

The MET program emphasizes hands-on experience and the use of state-of-the-art computer software in the fields of mechanical design, automatic controls, power generation, CAD/CAM, HVAC, and engineering sales. The program also provides a background in mathematics and science, which is sufficient to allow students to go on to graduate school, and also obtain a professional engineering license.

• Our graduates will possess the strengths to obtain and advance in positions that require analysis, applied design, development, implementation, or oversight of mechanical systems and processes.
• Our graduates will have the knowledge, problem solving ability, and hands-on skills to be successful in careers in the design, installation, manufacturing, testing, evaluation, technical sales, or maintenance of mechanical systems.
• Our graduates will have the foundation to take advantage of opportunities for life-long learning and professional development.

• an ability to select and apply the knowledge, techniques, skills, and modern tools of the discipline to broadly-defined engineering technology activities;
• an ability to select and apply a knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering, and technology to engineering technology problems that require the application of principles and applied procedures or methodologies;
• an ability to conduct standard tests and measurements; to conduct, analyze, and interpret experiments; and to apply experimental results to improve processes;
• an ability to design systems, components, or processes for broadly-defined engineering technology problems appropriate to program educational objectives;
• an ability to function effectively as a member or leader of a technical team;
• an ability to identify, analyze, and solve broadly-defined engineering technology problems;
• an ability to apply written, oral, and graphical communication in both technical and non-technical environments; and an ability to identify and use appropriate technical literature;
