Program Description:
The Mechanical Techniques program is specifically designed to introduce currently enrolled and recently graduated university engineering students to practical engineering concepts that include:
Industrial safety
Dimensional inspection
Machining practices
Metal forming
Welding
Pneumatics/electro-pneumatic circuits
Embedded electronics
Computer Aided Design (CAD), Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM), and Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining techniques
Course work will cover both theoretical and practical concepts with a focus on lab-based application of course content.
Admission Requirement:
Applicants are selected on the basis of their academic achievement, including the required courses, and any other selection criteria outlined below.
Currently attending (or out of school for one semester) a university in Canada in a mechanical and/or industrial engineering undergraduate program
Must have completed university Calculus I and Engineering Strategies and Practices (or Praxis) courses or their equivalent.
Applicants who are 18 years and younger will need to submit proof of an Ontario Secondary School diploma in addition to post-secondary transcripts.
Tuition Fees:
Application Fee | $95 |
