Tech/Engineering - Certificates, Diplomas, Licenses, CVs / Degree program name
Spanish term or phrase: Ingeniería en metal mecánica
This is the name of a degree program taken at the Universidad Technologica de la Region Norte de Guerrero in Mexico. Courses taken for this program include Manufacturing, Resistance of Materials, Thermodynamics and Mechanical Design.
The translation 'Mechanical Metal Engineering' just doesn't sound right and I can't find much about it. Is anyone familiar with this?
Many thanks!

'Mechanical Metal Engineering'
Explanation:
Opened the "Universidad Technologica de la Region Norte de Guerrero" page.
http://utrng.edu.mx/carreras.php

The degree in question is "technical" not "engineering". It covers:

Desarrollo y maquinado de piezas mecánicas.
Procesos de conformado.
Mantenimiento mecánico industrial.
Manufactura.

As you see, it all has to do with metal processing for future mechanical use. It sounds queer but it makes sense.

The degree offered is "Técnico en Ingeniería Metal Mecánica"
