What to Expect

Students interested in this program will take courses in Engineering & Advanced Manufacturing and Precision Machining Technology for the first three marking periods. After the third marking period, students will apply for full-time entrance into one of the two programs, and they will be accepted based on merit and other criteria. Students who are not approved for their first choice will be assigned to the other program included in the rotation.
