Program Overview

Northern’s advanced diploma in Mechanical Engineering Technology will give you an edge in the workplace — and set the stage for continuing studies at the university level.

After two years of the Mechanical Engineering Technician program, by year three you’ll specialize in machine design, manufacturing methods, process control, advanced fluid mechanics, thermodynamics and heat transfer.

You’ll get extensive hands-on training in a modern manufacturing lab complete with the latest scanners, printers, mills and lathes. You’ll learn how to select, design, install, maintain, program and troubleshoot modern industrial mechanical components and systems. You’ll graduate with the high-octane skills required to design, plan and coordinate fullscale mechanical engineering projects.

The first two years of the Mechanical Engineering Technology program is identical to the Mechanical Engineering Technician Program offered at Northern College. Students who are interested in designing, planning and coordinating mechanical engineering projects continue their studies for an additional year. They will acquire a greater depth of training and knowledge in strength of materials, manufacturing methods, advanced fluid mechanics, thermodynamics & heat transfer, process control, and machine design.

Students receive extensive hands-on instruction in a modern manufacturing lab with CNC mills, CNC lathes, CMM, 3D scanners, and a range of 3D printing technologies. They learn how to select, design, install, maintain, program and troubleshoot modern industrial mechanical components and systems.
