MET 240 - Mechatronics Application Project

3 Credit Hours

This course provides a capstone experience for the AAS Degree in Mechatronics Engineering Technology by requiring that the student, together with a teammate(s), apply skills and knowledge from each of the program areas to an independent mechatronics project related to consumer goods packaging. The student will develop and implement a project plan approved by the instructor that will demonstrate the ability to integrate the skills and knowledge obtained over the previous three (3) semesters of study. The student will work with actual industrial equipment and machinery in a realistic application. This course will broaden the student’s knowledge with respect to technology suppliers, equipment and applications. It is strongly suggested that the student and instructor begin planning for this course during the semester prior to the semester in which the course is completed.

Prerequisite(s): MET 150, MET 200, MET 210, MET 220

Students are granted credit for Mechatronics Engineering Technology (MET) courses by articulation after completion of the course competencies through courses offered by RACC’s Workforce and Economic Development/Community Education Division.
