Description:Discover all aspects of electromechanical engineering in the two-year Electromechanical Engineering Technician Ontario College Diploma program, delivered over four consecutive 14-week terms. This program prepares you with a complementary set of technical and theoretical skills that are readily transferable to working in any industry that incorporates automation into its daily activities. Learn to build and troubleshoot electrical systems, design electro-pneumatic circuits for process automation, develop your knowledge of motor controls, explore the workings and applications of programmable logic controllers and industrial robots, and also learn about the important aspects of mechatronics, quality control, group project work, leadership development, and entrepreneurship. Your acquired knowledge and skills can be focused on an area of electromechanical engineering/mechatronics that you are passionate about through a final project and optional co-op field placement in industry.

Over the course of this program, you experience both classroom and lab-based hands-on learning activities in which you develop communication, problem solving, and leadership and mentoring skills. You learn the fundamentals of mechatronics system design and construct functional automated systems as part of collaborative class projects.
