Engineering Technology Electromechanical, Diploma

Campus: Clinton, Muscatine, and Scott Community Colleges

The Engineering Technology program trains students to be specialists in the practical application and implementation of existing technology within the field of engineering. The program provides a great deal of flexibility, making it ideal for students coming out of high school as well as those already in the workforce. It includes flexible scheduling, hybrid courses (a combination of in-class and online learning), and a model of eight-week modules that allow numerous start times during the year.

The first four terms of the program provide a common core, after which student can choose coursework in the fifth term to specialize in Automation, Electromechanical or Process Control.
