The Bachelor of Science in Electromechanical Engineering Technology (B.S.E.T.E.M.) offers an interdisciplinary education, resulting from the integration of electronics and computers in engineering systems. This major offers an individual plan of study with coursework in electronics, electrical, manufacturing, and mechanical areas, with appropriate prerequisite courses. The program is designed to extend the practical and applied base of the associate degree program with more theoretical and comprehensive engineering technology courses, and additional courses in mathematics, science, and socio-humanities.

Admission Requirements

This program is designed to admit students who satisfy the general undergraduate admission requirements of the University and have an associate degree in electrical, electronics, industrial, manufacturing, mechanical, or related technology from a community college or equivalent college-level course-work. A minimum grade point average (g.p.a.) of 2.50 is required for admission to the program. Students with a g.p.a. of 2.0 to 2.5 may be admitted as pre-engineering technology students, and may be transferred into the engineering technology program upon successful completion of MAT 1800 and PHY 2130 with a g.p.a. of 2.50.

Required Background: Any student deficient in any courses listed under Lower Division Technical Transfer Credit will be required to remove deficiencies before completing fifteen credits in basic science/mathematics and technical core courses.

A Mathematics Placement Examination is required of entering students who have not already earned advanced credit in pre-calculus.

Program Requirements

Candidates for the B.S.E.T.E.M. degree must earn a minimum of 124 credits, as outlined in one of the following major programs and including the University General Education Requirements. University policy allows a maximum of sixty-four semester credits transferred from community colleges to Wayne State, but students following University-approved articulation agreements with community colleges are able to exceed the maximum of sixty-four credits; a minimum of thirty semester credits must be earned from Wayne State, at least twenty-four of which must be in Division of Engineering Technology courses. All coursework must be completed in accordance with the academic procedures of the University and the College and must conform to Division academic standards.

In order to graduate, the University requires a minimum 2.0 g.p.a. in total resident credit, and the Division a minimum 2.0 g.p.a. in total coursework in the area of specialization; as well as satisfaction of all University Undergraduate General Education Requirements.

The Bachelor of Science in Electromechanical Engineering Technology requires a minimum of 124 credits as outlined in the following curriculum.
