Student success in college requires well developed learning skills and attitudes (such as being able to work independently, participate in a team, be well-organized, develop good work habits, and show initiative). These skills are as important as prior academic achievement. Applicants should have thoroughly developed these skills and attitudes before beginning their college programs.

OUR PROGRAM

This program will prepare graduates for the rapidly changing demands of the North American industrial environment. Today’s companies require employees with multidisciplinary expertise that combines electrical and mechanical skills, who can install, maintain, operate, modify and troubleshoot increasingly sophisticated and automated equipment.

Hear what our students have to say about this program

Robotics and process automation are cornerstones of modern production facilities. Our multi-disciplined and hands-on approach to learning culminates in a capstone project in which students produce a complex working device that uses their accumulated theoretical and practical knowledge. Students continue their focus on the soft skills needed for a successful career in this critical area of production.

Students will learn from faculty who are experienced in both the workplace and the teaching environment. The curriculum is hands-on in the College’s machine shops, electrical and process engineering laboratories and robotics facilities to ensure that graduates move quickly and directly into industry.

*If you enrol in the program in January, you are able to complete this program in 16 consecutive months.
