Modern life is very dependent on electromechanical technology; nearly every aspect of living is dependent on electricity. This program prepares you to become a competent electromechanical technician capable of working and communicating with engineers, scientists, and production personnel.

The job market is almost unlimited for graduates of our program. Examples of positions in which our graduates are employed include:

• Computer development technician
• Automation service technician
• Design technician
• Electrician
• Electronic assembler
• Electronic assembly foreman
• Instrumentation technician
• Maintenance foreman
• PLC system technician
• Robotics technician

Electromechanical Engineering Technology Student Outcomes (SOs)

By the time students graduate from the Electromechanical Engineering Technology program, they are expected to have:

1. an ability to apply knowledge, techniques, skills and modern tools of mathematics, science, engineering, and technology to solve broadly-defined engineering problems appropriate to the discipline;
2. an ability to design systems, components, or processes meeting specified needs for broadly-defined engineering problems appropriate to the discipline;
3. an ability to apply written, oral, and graphical communication in broadly-defined technical and non-technical environments; and an ability to identify and use appropriate technical literature;
4. an ability to conduct standard tests, measurements, and experiments and to analyze and interpret the results to improve processes; and
5. an ability to function effectively as a member or as a leader on a technical team.

Miami Articulation Agreement

Individuals who have completed this degree at Shawnee State may continue their education in the electromechanical technology completion program from Miami University to earn a Bachelor’s degree.  For additional information, contact Adam Miller at Shawnee State, 740.351.3692, e-mail amiller2@shawnee.edu, or visit the Miami website, www.eas.muohio.edu/ent/.

Math Placement

The co-requisite course for ETEM 1110 Electrical Fundamentals 1 (DC) and ETCO 1310 Fluid Power is MATH 1200 College Algebra (ACT Math Sub-score of 22 or higher; SAT Math Sub-score of 520 or higher).  Your freshman course sequence will be:

	Fall Term	Spring Term
	ETEM 1110  Electrical Fundamentals 1 (DC)	ETEM1111  Electrical Fundamentals 2 (AC)
	MATH 1250 Trigonometry	ETEM 1216  Electronics
	ENGL 1102  Discourse & Composition	ETEM 1514  E M Devices
	ETCO 1310  Fluid Power	MATH 2110 Calculus 1
	ETCO 1120 STEM Computer Programming	ENGL 1105 Comp and Argumentation
	ETCA 1201 Intro to CADD or ETCA 1301 Parametric Modeling
	UNIV1100 Freshman Year Experience

Students placing below MATH 1200 based on either their ACT or SAT Math Sub-score do not meet the co-requisite to enroll in ETEM 1110 or ETCO 1310.  Should this be your situation, below is a schedule of courses that can apply to the A.A.S. in Electromechanical Engineering Technology as fulfilling general education program (GEP) academic requirements or technical elective requirements and bring you to the MATH 1200 level.  This schedule prepares you to begin the A.A.S. in Electromechanical Engineering Technology program the fall term of your second year at SSU.

	Fall Term	Spring Term
	ENGL 1101 or ENGL 1102  Discourse and Composition	ENGL 1105 Composition and Argumentation
	MATH 0102 Intermediate Algebra	MATH 1200 College Algebra
	ETCA 1201 Intro to CADD	GEP Social Science Elective
	ETEM 1510  Intro to Electricity/Electronics	ETCO 1120 Introduction to STEM Computer Programming

If an entering student’s math placement is below MATH 1200, remediation to get to this level is below the content of this program, and does not count as academic credit toward earning this degree.

Computer Requirement

All students in the B.S. in Computer Engineering Technology, B.S. in Digital Simulation and Gaming Engineering Technology, and A.A.S. in Electromechanical Engineering Technology degree programs are required to purchase a laptop computer for use in class.

Many vendors offer academic discounts to university students.  See the respective vendors’ websites for more information on how to take advantage of these discounts.
