Program Description

Entry-level electro-mechanic operations and maintenance technicians install, maintain, and repair machinery and mechanical equipment. Working in Qatar’s naval forces, electro-mechanic operations and maintenance technicians read and interpret technical drawings, install, align, and dismantle mechanical equipment, and operate various devices and machine tools. They play key roles in pump, internal combustion engine, and compressor maintenance. Electro-mechanic operation and maintenance technicians generally work in various ship’s units focusing on preventative maintenance tasks which are required for various test equipment.

The applied, Technician Certificate - Electro-Mechanic Operation and Maintenance (T. Cert. EMOM) prepares graduates for careers as entry level electro-mechanic operators and maintainers in the Qatar Emiri Naval Forces. The program is competency-based with a mix of theory and practical skills development. Students will train in simulated work environments within College of Engineering and Technology workshops and pilot plants, using current industry standards, and industry-relevant tools and equipment.

Trainees will receive workplace safety training at the beginning of the program. Safety principles will be reinforced and embedded throughout every course and technical tasks will be completed during the program.

Program Duration:

2 years
