The curriculum matrix for the degree program may be found here. The curriculum matrix is the alignment of courses (curriculum) with the desired goals and student learning outcomes of the program. It shows what is taught and how these outcomes are achieved through the completion of the degree program.

The Electromechanical Systems Engineering Technology program is accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission of ABET.

The EMSET major stresses the application, design and integration of of mechanical/thermal-fluid systems with electronics and control systems. The program emphasizes on principles of statistics, dynamics, strength of materials, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, heat transfer, HVAC, machine elements, manufacturing systems and processes, engineering graphics, computer programming, robotics, instrumentation and controls. Graduates may be involved in applied design, analysis, application, or production of mechanical/thermo-fluid or robotics or control systems.

Note: A 2.0 GPA is required in core courses to receive a degree in all Electromechanical Engineering Technology majors.
