Manufacturing plays an essential role affecting the way we live and use various products, and will do so more in the future. This growth can provide exciting, challenging, and rewarding career opportunities for forward-looking students in Manufacturing Engineering Technology (MNET). Engineering technology is that part of the technological field that requires the application of scientific and engineering knowledge and methods combined with technical skills in support of engineering activities. The mission of the MNET program is to provide an excellent nationally recognized engineering technology education that will produce graduates who possess the technical, academic, leadership, management, and social skills required to facilitate the economic viability and vitality of South Dakota and its industries.
This program provides the students with the opportunity to learn basic and advanced manufacturing technologies, industrial automation, and management techniques for improving the way manufacturing companies operate. Integral to this program are courses and concepts in math, science, communications, social studies, and teamwork, enhancing the employability of the graduates of this program. The graduates of this program are prepared to perform effectively at the entry level as manufacturing engineers in areas such as quality, supervision, production planning, product and process design, work design, plant layout, and plant management. The Manufacturing Engineering Technology curriculum at South Dakota State University has been developed using guidelines provided by the National Center of Excellence for Advanced Manufacturing Education, the Society for Manufacturing Engineers, and input from regional manufacturing businesses.
