Automation Engineering Program Highlights

Oversee the design and implementation of precision machinery with an automation degree.

Modern manufacturing requires machines capable of producing increasingly complex components and assemblies with speed and precision at a low cost. An automation engineer combines traditional engineering design methods with expertise in industrial robotics, programmable automation controllers, and data visualization and analysis to design, implement, and maintain automated manufacturing equipment that can meet the growing demands of Industry 4.0.

• Automation engineering students will be exposed to traditional engineering design methods, industrial robotics, and process control techniques to create automated manufacturing solutions.
• The program fosters the development of problem-solving skills through real-world, hands-on problem-solving that involves troubleshooting and maintenance exercises.
• The development of soft skills is reinforced through presentations and reports focusing on solution design, quality control reporting, and maintenance planning.
