RIT Department of Manufacturing and Mechanical Engineering Technology

The Department of Manufacturing and Mechanical Engineering Technology (MMET) is comprised of three d

The department is comprised of three distinct disciplines that offer intense hands-on education in Manufacturing, Mechanical or Electrical Mechanical engineering technology. The students from these disciplines graduate as lifelong learners with the ability to adapt, grow and succeed in a highly competitive engineering workplace. The intense hands-on education enables graduates to hit the road running the day they graduate, requiring very minimal training in the field.

Hey Everyone! Today we are doing a Student Spotlight for Lavanya Ashok Swaminathan! Check out her story below!

Hey Everyone! This week we wanted to present a Student Spotlight! Ashutosh Sharma graduated from St. Francis Institute of Technology with a Bachelors in Electronics and Telecommunication, and would later come to RIT to pursue a Masters in Manufacturing and Mechanical System Integration – Robotics. Listen to what he has to say on some of his past experiences!

I'm an international student from India, currently pursuing a master's in Manufacturing and Mechanical System Integration, majoring in Robotics and Advanced Manufacturing Systems. I was working for Honeywell Intelligrated which is a Material Handling company as a Mechanical Project Engineer for 8 months. I was a part of the Distribution and Fulfillment department which caters to e-commerce companies and is responsible for creating Approval and Detailed layouts of the fulfillment centers containing a web of hundreds of conveyor belts in them. I was also a part of the commissioning team for a Target fulfillment center where my responsibilities included mechanical and electrical testing of conveyor belts. It was an amazing experience to actually go behind the scenes of an e-commerce operation and be an integral part of it. Unfortunately, the picture is photoshopped because the office was closed during Covid-19.
