In this three-year advanced diploma program, students will increase their knowledge of design and engineering principles. They will learn to apply theories of design, production and marketing to gain an understanding of the steps necessary to commercialize a design idea. Their studies will introduce them to machining and production techniques, rapid prototyping, principles of mechanical design, engineering analysis, marketing, basic accounting practices, entrepreneurial skills, ergonomics, basic electricity and electronics, reverse engineering and product and design digitizing. This program shares a common first and second semester curriculum with the Mechanical Techniques (Tool & Die/Mould Making) program. It shares a common third and fourth semester as the Mechanical Engineering Technician – Tool Design. This concept of laddering allows flexibility and options to increase levels of education incrementally. Throughout this program students will develop the following skills: Product development Machining techniques MasterCAM SolidWorks 3D printing and prototyping CMM programming/quality assurance and inspection Die design Jig and fixture design Mould design Cost estimating Reverse engineering 3D scanning and model modification Prototyping
