Currently, the degree has a single focus area in Mechatronics,preparing students for careers in the design, development, implementation and support ofelectromechanical systems that are controlled through embedded hardware and software. The MXET degree is now being expanded to include new additional focus areas. The firstone of these areas is STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) TeacherPreparation. In collaboration with the College of Education, a MXET focus area is beingcustomized to produce graduates who can sit for their Mathematics/Science/Engineeringcertification and who can teach at the

Withindustry assistance and funding, students work on faculty/student industry projects andfaculty/company directed capstone senior design projects, as a bridge between education and thework environment. Through our Engineer-In-Residence program, Technology graduate studentsare placed at companies and supported for a semester long “in-house” project. There are manyother avenues used to provide pathways between industry and academics.We have developed a strong triangle which links student, industry, and university.

In particular, there is a focus on cooperative incentivesinstead of competition so as to promote learning.
