Seneca Polytechnic

This program is offered in Seneca's hybrid delivery format with some courses available in Seneca's flexible delivery format. Some coursework is online and some must be completed in person. Students will need to come on campus to complete in-person learning requirements. For courses offered in the flexible delivery format, professors use innovative learning spaces and technology to teach students in a classroom or lab and broadcast in real time to students attending remotely. In flexible courses, students have the choice of coming on campus or learning online.

In this three-year advanced diploma program, you will learn how to design, program, test, troubleshoot and maintain automation, robotics and mechatronics systems. With an emphasis on automation and robotics, this program blends electronics and mechanical engineering and focuses on training engineering technologists. You will acquire industry-specific skills related to the use of electrical and mechanical CAD/CAM tools, market leading PLCs, CNCs, robots and connection of smart sensors via IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) to the Cloud. You will also learn how to use VR/AR simulation tools to achieve faster design, higher productivity and quality, and enhance safety in automated manufacturing. Classes and labs will be delivered in Seneca’s Centre for Innovation, Technology and Entrepreneurship (CITE).
