Engineering design technology saves companies time and money. Many products that we use today have been designed and tested before manufacturing takes place. At Western Michigan University, you will learn this process on multiple state-of-the-art CAD systems, and you will practice testing designs for usefulness using a variety of analysis systems.

Manufacturing engineering technology combines the study of math and basic sciences with materials and manufacturing processes, productivity techniques, computer applications and robotics and product design. You will also practice communicating your ideas orally and in writing. A degree in this field will enable you to work in manufacturing planning and operations, tooling and systems design, process and product development, quality assurance, technical training and supervision.
