Finding the Best Electromechanical Engineering Technology Associate Degree School for You

In 2021-2022, 10,780 people earned a degree or certificate in electromechanical engineering technology, making the major the #18 most popular in the United States.

There are lots of options to pick from today when trying to decide which trade school program is right for you. You're no longer limited to schools in your local area, either, since online programs are becoming more prevalent.

To help you arm yourself with the information you need to make your decision, Trade College Search has developed this Best Value Electromechanical Engineering Associate Degree Schools ranking. Our analysis looked at 94 schools in the United States to see which associate degree programs offered the best value experiences for electromechanical engineering tech students with the aim of identifying those quality schools that are more affordable than some of their counterparts.

When determining this ranking, we place a high emphasis on the school's quality as well as its sticker price. Even though a college may be affordable, it may not offer value. More specifically, we discount our quality score by the published tuition and fees charged by a school. This gives the cost per unit of quality for each college. The value is determined by how much quality your dollar buys.

Our calculations use out-of-state tuition and fees in our nationwide and regional rankings. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.
