Electro Mechanical Engineering Technician Program In a Nutshell

After two short years in Centennial College's Electro Mechanical Engineering Technician - Automation and Robotics program, students receive their Ontario College Diploma and are prepared to enter positions in manufacturing sectors that include: automotive, food, pharmaceuticals, packaging, aircraft and communications. In these areas, Electro-Mechanical Engineering Technicians design and build, manufacture, offer application support, test components, integrate systems, maintain and sell robots that are used in assembly lines.

Here is a snapshot of this Automation robotics engineering technician offering :-
