Engineering Technology Master’s Mechanical Engineering Concentration Degree Overview
The Master of Science in Engineering Technology (MSET) with a Mechanical Engineering concentration examines how mechanical systems operate within manufacturing environments. It is designed for those who want to understand how these systems are managed to keep production running consistently.
The program focuses on robotics principles, instrumentation and control, manufacturing systems, and the use of AI in manufacturing. Students explore how automated systems are managed and maintained, how production processes are reviewed for efficiency, and how data-driven tools are used to monitor performance and support decisions.
With ECPI University’s year-round accelerated schedule, students can complete the program and earn their master’s degree in as little as 13 months.
