Engineering Science: Advanced Manufacturing, Associate in Science

The Engineering Science – Advanced Manufacturing program introduces students to the principles, analysis and equipment of engineering manufacturing.  Emphasis is placed on fundamentals through “hands on” curriculum.  The program is designed to serve two purposes for students.  First, the objective has an occupational focus. The core and concentration curriculum prepares graduates to work in such occupations as machinists, Cell leaders, Precision machining technicians, EAs or Engineering Assistants, as well as prototype developers all of which are critical needs of our current workforce employers. Second, the majority of the courses in the program prepare students to pursue an upper level degree in Engineering.

A minimum of 61 credits is required for graduation.

Any student enrolled in an associate degree program who is new to NECC and has no academic history at the college, must take at least one course designated as intensive in each of NECC’s six-core academic skills-in order to graduate. In most cases, the program’s core required courses include these intensive courses. Students should select electives that meet core academic skills that are not met by the required courses.  Plan to see an advisor for more complete information about this graduation requirement.
