Robotics/Mechantronics Technology (M307)

The Robotics/Mechatronics Technology Program trains students to be robotics/mechatronics/automation/manufacturing/electronics technicians who can program, troubleshoot, and repair robots and mechatronics devices in different applications. A robotics/mechatronics technician is a highly skilled person who works with industrial/manufacturing specialists in the rapidly expanding and dynamic industry of automated manufacturing. The robotics/mechatronics student receives extensive training in robotics, electronics, computer controls, data acquisition, mechanical controls, pneumatics, electrical power, motors, and hydraulics relative to industrial robots and mechatronics devices. The graduates of the Robotics/Mechatronics Technology Program can also transfer to Morgan State University and Capitol College to pursue BS degrees in Engineering or Engineering Technology.

Notes:

* Robotics/Mechantronics Technology students may have summer internship opportunities at industries or Morgan State University School of Engineering.
** Depending on a student’s BCCC college math placement scores (through the Accuplacer Test) and the Robotics/Mechantronics Technology Coordinator’s evaluation of the student’s math placement scores, a Robotics/Mechantronics Technology student may be placed into a higher level math course such as MAT 140 instead of MAT 127 .
*** PHY 203 maybe substituted for PHY 101 .
