Bismarck State College

CertificateAcademic

Become a contributor for free to openly demonstrate student outcomes, industry alignment & eligibility criteria.

The Mechatronics I program certificate prepares students to develop skills in both electrical and mechanical systems. Students will learn to analyze and design electrical circuits with DC and AC currents, gaining hands-on experience in a lab setting. They'll also be introduced to mechanical drive systems and the fundamentals of hydraulics, preparing them to troubleshoot and maintain equipment that uses both electrical and mechanical components.

Key competencies developed through this program

Auto-populated·from NSX Competency Framework

Mastery: developing (Level 2)(based on Certificate)

  • Electromechanical system performance — evaluate using oscilloscopes, bridges, and electronic voltmeters with minimal oversight during scheduled production testing cycles.
  • Electrical, electronic, and mechanical components — modify, maintain, or repair to restore proper functioning in response to standard fault conditions on the shop floor.
  • Assembly sequences — determine independently by reading blueprints and wiring diagrams for moderately complex subassemblies in a manufacturing or field-service environment.
  • Instrumentation software — install and configure in microprocessor-based control systems following vendor documentation and established site procedures.
  • Component dimensions and clearances — verify using precision measuring tools and document results against engineering tolerances in a quality-control workflow.
  • Soldered electrical connections — produce and inspect to IPC or equivalent workmanship standards while assembling units in a mid-volume production environment.
  • Equipment malfunctions — troubleshoot using systematic diagnostic methods, applying deductive reasoning to isolate faults in electromechanical assemblies.
  • CAD and analytical software — use to review design drawings and interpret test data when supporting engineering changes on existing equipment.
  • Quality control analyses — perform on completed assemblies, identifying out-of-tolerance conditions and initiating corrective action through established reporting channels.
  • Maintenance records and technical reports — write accurately to document repair actions, parts used, and test results in a department database or ERP system.
