Programs » Advanced Engineering Tools » Curriculum » Instructors

The Advanced Engineering Tools (AET) Certificate Program is a graduate level program offered by the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry. Developed in cooperation with the Manufacturers Association of Central New York (MACNY) and co-sponsored by the SUNY Center for Brownfield Studies, the program prepares participants to meet the challenges of engineering and construction projects that involve advanced information technology. The program consists of six graduate level courses offered over one year designed to give participants new knowledge and skills in the following areas:

- Global positioning systems
- Geographic information systems
- Computer-aided design and drafting
- Construction contracts and specifications
- Brownfield redevelopment practices

Participants earn graduate-level credit for each completed course. While successful completion of this program does not guarantee admission to a Master’s degree program, most courses will meet partial requirements for a Master’s track in programs such as SUNY-ESF’s Master of Professional Studies in Environmental Management or Mapping Sciences.
