Mechanical engineering technology is the application of engineering principles and technological developments for the creation of useful products and production machinery. Mechanical engineering technologists are expected to apply current technologies and principles from machine and product design, production and material and manufacturing processes. Expandable specialties may include aerospace, automotive, energy, nuclear, petroleum, manufacturing, product development, and industrial design. Mechanical engineering technologists can have many different titles, including in the United States: Mechanical Engineering Technology coursework is less theoretical, and more application based than a mechanical engineering degree. This is evident through the additional laboratory coursework required for a degree. The ability to apply concepts from the chemical engineering and electrical engineering fields is important. Some university Mechanical Engineering Technology degree programs require mathematics through differential equations and statistics. Most courses involve algebra and calculus. Oftentimes, a MET graduate could get hired as an engineer; job titles may include Mechanical Engineer and Manufacturing Engineer. In the U.S. it is possible to get an associate or bachelor's degree.
