Program Overview

Automated Manufacturing Technology refers to flexible manufacturing systems that use innovative technologies to improve both production processes and product quality.

The Automated Manufacturing Technology program prepares students to work with integrated systems, such as robotic automation, modular work cells, machining centers, welding stations, and mechanical and electrical technologies.

Students will explore how each technology supports the full product lifecycle, from initial design and production to final delivery.

This degree program offers multiple strands (or areas of focus), including Flex, Mechanical Engineering Technology, Mechatronics, and Robotics. Each strand includes a set of specialized elective courses within the core curriculum, allowing students to tailor their education to their interests and career goals.

For the Flex Strand students must complete the core Automated Manufacturing Technology (AMT) curriculum requirements with these strand electives:

Minimum 13 Elective credits in the following:

  • ADMT, ROBO, CBAM, CIS, BIO, PHYS, MATH, WELD, DATA, CHEM or as approved by the Department Chair
  • Note - 8 credits must be 200 level
  • Military Technical Transfer up to 10 Credits

For the Mechanical Engineering Technology Strand students must complete the core AMT curriculum requirements with these strand electives:
