Manufacturing Technology: A.A.S.

Program Mission

The mission of the Manufacturing Technology Program is to prepare students for careers as manufacturing technicians with an A.A.S. degree. The program utilizes small classes to provide quality instruction of the fundamental theoretical concepts of manufacturing technology as well as extensive hands-on practice of these concepts in a modern laboratory setting. Our faculty are proud to work with employers to continuously improve the program based on current manufacturing practices and needs.

Program Learning Outcomes

Graduates of the Manufacturing Technology program will demonstrate:

An appropriate mastery of the knowledge, techniques, skills and current tools of manufacturing.
The ability to apply mathematics and science to improve efficiency and quality in manufacturing.
The ability to creatively solve production and quality control problems.
The ability to work effectively as a team member.
The ability to identify, analyze and solve problems related to production and manufacturing.
The ability to communicate effectively with other technical, support and management areas.
An ability and interest in engaging in lifelong learning.
A respect for the ethical responsibilities of their job.
A respect for diversity and knowledge of professional, societal, and global issues.
A commitment to quality, timeliness and continuous improvement.

SUNY Broome’s Manufacturing Technology program prepares students for immediate employment in a variety of areas such as manufacturing processes, metrology, principles of continuous improvement, CNC and statistical quality control. It is designed for full-time, part-time, day or evening students who seek an Associate in Applied Science (AAS) degree in a technical skills area with a non-calculus mathematics approach.

This program emphasizes the application of scientific and engineering knowledge combined with practical technical skills and methods in support of advanced manufacturing, and includes a capstone project. In addition, the program allows students to train in the highly technical specialty of Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) using state-of-the-art equipment. Students will gain valuable hands-on experience with popular CNC software packages.

Program Notes

In today’s high-tech industries, Computer Numerical Control (CNC) / Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) technical skills are in great demand. This new and exciting program was specifically designed to prepare students to enter into today’s high-tech industries with the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed.
