My name is David DaCosta. I'm a second-year 
 student at Humber's Electromechanical Engineering Technology program.
It's all about learning about the technologies and the skills 
 that you need to make an automated system.
This program is geared towards someone who really enjoys using 
 their hands and using all the technology that's
available. What's really fun about it is that the students 
 get to work on real-life applications, real-life devices they're
going to see in the real world.
The faculty here is great. Our program coordinator, he's a great guy. 
 He's there, he helps us out. All our teachers, they're
always there if you have questions they're willing to help you.
Some students actually built a hydrogen generator where they were 
 converting tap water into hydrogen. One of the 
most impressive things about that was all the safety 
 protocols that they built in since hydrogen is
an explosive substance.
We do have some very cool equipment in our labs 
 for actually getting prepared for the industry later.
We have six industrial robots. Through our program we do have 
 a co-op so you're able to get some work experience
and some connections through your co-op
One thing that distinguishes Humber from some of the other colleges 
 in the region is that the School of Applied
Technology has recently been granted a CTAB Accreditation. What 
 this essentially means is for graduates from
our program is it makes the process much easier 
 for them to gain a CET designation.
Use your resources while you're at school. The best 
 advantange of being in college or university is
the people you're able to connect with.
the people you're able to connect with.
It's a lot of work to get through it but it pays off 
 in the end so just make sure that you choose right.
