Times are changing in the field of maintenance. Facilities are running with both manual and automated equipment and both need to be maintained and repaired. If you like to troubleshoot, work with your hands, and have an interest in repairing equipment, a career in maintenance is for you. Your expertise and knowledge are needed in today's modern, automated facilities. At Minnesota State College Southeast, the Electromechanical Technology diploma spans AC and DC electricity, digital electronics, mechanical power, hydraulics, pneumatics, and more. The 31-credit diploma takes only two semesters to complete -- and if you want to continue your education, the diploma serves as a foundation for earning a two-year Associate of Applied Science in Mechatronics.
