Curriculum in Industrial Technology
The industrial technology curriculum prepares students for professional
positions that emphasize technical management in industry, business,
or government. The Bachelor of Science degree program stresses computer
applications, technical management, production processes and product
quality.
The curriculum has been designed to assist students to develop
a comprehensive understanding of the interaction of people, planning,
machines, tools, equipment, safety and production processes, in
manufacturing settings. Extensive laboratory experiences are incorporated
into most courses.
The program seeks to develop problem solving abilities and creativity
to assist graduates in meeting technical requirements, human expectations,
and regulatory requirements in contemporary manufacturing settings.
Students majoring in industrial technology select one of the two
options: manufacturing or occupational safety. A minor in Industrial
Technology with an occupational safety focus is available.
English Proficiency In order to meet
graduation requirements, all students must earn an average of C
(2.0) or better in all English courses taken, including Engl 104,
Engl 105, and one of the following: Engl 309 or Engl 314.
U. S. Diversity and International Perspectives
In order to meet graduation requirements, all students must complete
3 credits of course work in U.S. Diversity and 3 credits in International
Perspectives. Courses that are acceptable for meeting these requirements
are listed on the University website.
Total credits required: 120.5-123.5.
