The Design and Manufacturing Engineering Technology Undergraduate Diploma at Saskatchewan Polytechnic is crafted for aspiring technologists keen to bridge the gap between innovative design and practical production. You will delve into the core principles of mechanical engineering, mastering essential skills in computer-aided drafting (CAD), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), and the foundational elements of mechatronics. This program is ideal for students who are hands-on, enjoy problem-solving, and are eager to understand how complex systems are designed, built, and optimised for efficiency and performance in modern industrial settings.
You will engage in a comprehensive, full-time, on-campus learning experience over two years, with a curriculum that balances theoretical knowledge with extensive practical application. Through modules covering materials science, strength of materials, applied mechanics, and advanced manufacturing techniques like CNC machining and additive manufacturing, you will develop a robust skill set. The program emphasizes project-based learning, allowing you to design and build prototypes, culminating in a capstone project. Upon graduation, you will be prepared for diverse roles in product development, manufacturing engineering, and technical design across various industries.
