College Diploma - Mechanical Engineering Technology

The Mechanical Engineering Technology program is a practical, hands-on, full-time, two-year diploma program that lets students develop strong technical, analytical, and problem solving skills essential for a range of exciting careers in the challenging field of mechanical engineering.

During the common first year, students will be exposed to a variety of topics including foundational math and physics, Computer Aided Design (CAD) and additional specialized courses to prepare them to enter into one of three specialized majors. Upon successful completion of the common first year, selection of students' major will occur.

Although the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology will attempt to help students complete the program major of their choice, grade point for specific courses will be used in the selection criteria for each major, in case of a seat shortage for specific majors.
