Welcome

Our faculty and facilities qualify for Festo Instructor Certification Process to teach Fluid Power Training Seminar Courses as a training center for Mechatronics Technology. The official designation symbolizes the quality of education at TSTC Harlingen, which meets and surpasses professional standards.

Your laboratory projects will give you experience in the use of electrical, electronic, pneumatic and hydraulic equipment, as well as electrical measurement devices. The class sizes are ideal for one-on-one instruction involving planning, assembly, programming, commissioning, operation, maintenance, and problem-shooting procedures. The faculty brings its industry-based experience into the classrooms and laboratories to enhance your skills with communications and help you build a high degree of confidence.

As a student, you will assist with the design and construction of systems featuring electrical motor controls, hydraulic and pneumatic controls, computer-based control systems based on Rockwell Automation Programmable Logic Controllers, the Parallax Basic Stamp and other microcontrollers. You could work toward a Certificate of Completion, an Associate of Applied Science degree or other training options.

The best way to grasp a thorough understanding of our education and career opportunities is a visit to our campus to chat with faculty and students. We’re sure you’ll find that our college environment offers academic planning, financial aid advice, scholarship applications and internship challenges that should match your goals.
