College of Applied Science & Technology 113 Mechanical Engineering Technology Location: Engineering Technology Building, Room 214 Telephone Contact: Pat DeJong 801-626-6305 Email: met@weber.edu Mechanical engineering technology is the practical application of mechanical engineering. Mechanical engineering technologists play an integral role in product design and manufacturing process cycles which include planning, design, analysis, testing and documentation. They utilize skills in materials science, engineering mechanics, thermal science, design, instrumentation and technical writing. The curriculum includes problem-solving courses such as statics, strength of materials, dynamics, machine design, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and heat transfer that are based on engineering science and mathematics. Integrated into many of the courses are laboratory and project oriented experiences that teach the practical, hands-on aspects of mechanical engineering technology. A balanced blend of engineering science and practical applications provides the mechanical engineering technologist the knowledge and skills needed to be successful in today's technical workplace. Mechanical engineering technology has lead to numerous opportunities for exciting, creative and rewarding careers in a wide range of industries including aerospace, automotive, electronics, manufacturing, medical equipment, mining and power generation. Design Engineering Technology Location: Engineering Technology Building, Room 214 Telephone Contact: Pat DeJong 801-626-6305 Email: designengineering@weber.edu The Design Engineering Technology program prepares students to develop product design and development drawings and 3D models as well as architectural designs, construction documents and Building Information Models (BIM), reports, presentations, technical illustrations, interactive multimedia, and animations for industry. Students will develop their graphical skills, techniques, concepts, and management skills through exercises and projects. They will work in mechanical, electrical, architectural, structural, and overall project management areas. Students will use calculators, computers, handbooks, and engineering reference materials while applying various mathematical concepts from geometry, algebra, and trigonometry. Electronics Engineering Technology Location: Engineering Technology Building, Room 214 Telephone Contact: Pat DeJong 801-626-6305 Email: jmcculley@weber.edu The Electronics Engineering Techno logy AAS degree prepares graduates to specify, install, operate, troubleshoot, and modify computers, automated programmable controllers, and electronic systems. It is designed to give the student fundamental knowledge and basic skills in robotics, automation, electronic manufacturing, fabrication, testing, and troubleshooting. The Electronics Engineering Technology Bachelor of Science (BS) degree is designed to continue a student's education beyond the associate's degree level. It is intended to provide the student with knowledge and skills in problem solving, critical thinking, project management, team building, and engineering research to identify, evaluate, analyze, and solve complex computer and electronic related technical problems. Apprenticeship (AAS) The Associate of Applied Science in Apprenticeship degree is a generic degree that is specifically designed for students who have completed or are completing an apprenticeship program under the auspices of the Office of Apprenticeship. This degree consists of the apprenticeship courses and on-the-job training from the Ogden Weber Applied Technology College (OWATC) coupled with general education and two additional required courses from Weber State University. While the degree was developed for OWATC apprenticeship students, it is open to anyone who meets the qualifications of an apprentice with a certificate of proficiency from a post-secondary institution offering the Office of Apprenticeship (OA) certified program. Please see www.ucats.org for a list of other Utah College of Applied Technology locations. For additional information and advisement, contact Rainie Ingram, College of Applied Science & Technology Academic Advisor (phone: 801-626-7785; email: ringram@weber. edu). In order for a student to receive this degree they must complete the course requirements listed below and provide one of the following: • State of Utah Journeyperson's License • Certificate of Completion from the Office of Apprenticeship (OA) • Certificate o f Comp letion from the p ost- seco ndary institution offering an OA certified program Course Requirements for the AAS Degree • ENGL 1010 EN - Introductory College Writing Credits: (3) • COMM 2110 HU - Interpersonal and Small Group Communication Credits: (3) • Social Science General Education (SS) Elective (3) • AUSV 1300 - Technical Mathematics Credits: (3) • BTNY 1403 LS - Environment Appreciation Credits: (3-4) ** • NTM 1700 TE - Introduction to Microcomputer Applications Credits: (3) • PS 3563 - Principles of Sales Supervision Credits: (3) *** • PS 3702 - Developing Team Leadership Skills Credits: (2) *** * Recommended - MATH 1010 or above is acceptable. ** Recommended - Any general education science course is acceptable. ***To register for these two courses, students must be in the third year of their apprenticeship program and have completed COMM 2110.
