Manufacturing Engineering Technician (Co-op) Fanshawe College

Program Description

The machines that build our economy and help businesses thrive don’t make themselves. They don’t fix themselves and they certainly don’t run themselves. If a career in the manufacturing sector excites you, and you’re looking for an opportunity to gain hands-on experience while studying, the Manufacturing Engineering Technician (Co-op) program is for you. By choosing the Co-op stream of the program, you’ll gain real-world experience with two paid work terms, learning how to keep the economy running. Once in the manufacturing technician course, your technical skills will be put to the test, learning and enhancing your skill-set for the modern manufacturing sector. You’ll begin the CNC machine operator course by examining the finer points of numerically controlled machine programming, tool design, production planning, statistical process control, value engineering, advanced machining and maintenance engineering throughout the manufacturing industry. You’ll be trained on cutting-edge numerically controlled CNC and CAD/CAM equipment, giving you an advantage in the work force once you graduate. In the pursuit of your manufacturing technician certification, you’ll also be trained to evolve your skills alongside the always changing manufacturing sector – an opportunity for lifelong learning.
