Manufacturing Engineering Technology Diploma (ME22)

Manufacturing engineering technology graduates assist engineers to design, develop, test, and manufacture mechanical devices, including tools, engines, and machines. They may make sketches and rough layouts, record and analyze data, make calculations and estimates, troubleshoot and repair systems and report their findings. Manufacturing engineers also estimate labor costs, equipment life, and plant space. Some test and inspect machines and equipment or work with engineers to eliminate production problems. They may assist in testing products.
