Program Overview
The Electromechanical Engineering Technology – Building Automation three-year advanced diploma program provides you with the technical skills you need to succeed in the job market.
Building automation systems don't just control the basics: they regulate airflow, monitor energy use, and integrate with security, lighting, and other building systems to deliver comfort, safety, energy efficiency, and sustainability. With buildings becoming more complex, they differ in usage, size, operating hours, and environmental conditions. Whether it's offices, homes, hotels, schools, or other structures, each has its unique needs. The key to optimal building services technology lies in proper system design and integration throughout the planning, construction, commissioning, and operational phases.
In this program, you'll learn to:
- Install, program, adjust, and maintain building automation systems
- Program and install sensors, actuators, and controllers
- Collect data for use in real-time or for archiving in a central server
- Work with building software platforms that interconnect different systems
You'll gain a diverse set of skills and abilities that will also prepare you for "green" careers focused on energy efficiency, renewable energy, and the environment. This type of skill set is in high-demand for both the construction industry, and the controls and automation industry.
Industry Skills
- Safety practices in the installation and troubleshooting of HVAC/R systems, including applicable codes and standards of the NEC, ASHRAE, OSHA, EPA and other regulatory bodies.
- Basic HVAC/R processes and the function, layout and operation of commercial HVAC/R systems.
- Functions, operating characteristics and applications of the control loops and control modes in digital, analog and pneumatic commercial control systems.
- Blueprints and manufacturer’s technical instructions for installing or servicing a sensor, controller, actuator and related relays and power supplies.
- General-purpose software and specific building automation software that monitors and controls HVAC/R and electrical systems.
- Various BAS controls and systems, including DCS, PLC, PAC and SCADA.
- Functions of network devices and protocols, such as a bridge, router, gateway, hub, firewall, twisted pair, Ethernet, TCP/IP, Zigbee, WiFi, BAS/IP and BacNet.
- Emerging green technologies, such as solar, wind, and hydronic, and how they integrate into building systems and residential applications.
