The Industrial Engineering Technician program is open for students interested in building their future learning the foundations of Industrial Automation and Robotics. This certificate has been developed with DVC’s industry partners to provide job ready skills. Students will learn how to apply engineering theory and principles to problems of industrial layout and manufacturing production,usually under the direction of engineering staff. Additional foundational management skills courses have been included.
To earn the certificate of achievement, students must complete each of the courses required for the major with a “C” grade or higher.

Diablo Valley College’s (DVC) Engineering Technology (ENGTC) and Electronics (EET) programs are combining segments of their disciplines to better meet the ever-changing needs of the Bay Area’s high-tech and industrial sectors. The Industrial Engineering Technician certificate has been created to provide entry level skills needed for manufacturing technologists and technicians. Students will learn howto apply engineering theory and principles to problems of industrial layout or manufacturing production,usually under the direction of engineering staff. They will also perform time and motion studies on worker operations in a variety of industries for purposes such as establishing standard production rates or improving efficiency.
To keep up with the labor demands of local industries who are increasingly utilizing the latest technologies and equipment for precision automation and uninterrupted throughput, DVC is combining entry level classes from our mTech (machine repair) and electronics disciplines.Additionally, combined with the Robotics Technician classes, the Industrial Engineering Technician graduates will earn DVC’s existing Industrial Automation and Robotics certificate.
DVC is in an excellent position to capitalize on the immediate needs of our local high-tech companies by providing technical training and job skills required for employment in the automation androbotics fields. While the use of automation is replacing many low paying repetitive and unskilled positions, there is an increasing demand for highly skilled laborers who can integrate and service critical robotic equipment within modern facilities.
