Program Overview

Computer-Aided Engineering Technology (CAET) is the term for an evolving set of computer-based tools used for the development, communication, and evaluation of product and building designs. The Undergraduate Certificate in CAET will provide students with a critical skill set identified by industry and government at both the state and national levels. Core classes provide students with a solid foundation in computerized automation techniques, three-dimensional form and location geometry. Elective courses facilitate a focus into specific sub-disciplines.
