Mission Statement

The Industrial Automation and Maintenance degree shall produce graduates who are immediately employable into entry-level technical positions in a wide variety of industrial, manufacturing, power generation, and production support jobs.

The Industrial Automation and Maintenance program is a two-year technical program leading to an Associate of Technical Studies Degree in Industrial Automation and Maintenance.

Studies in the Industrial Automation and Maintenance focus on the installation, repair, and maintenance of the electronic equipment used to control manufacturing and power generation processes. Programmable controllers, industrial controls, and robotic systems integration are emphasized. The solid foundation of coursework and hands-on training in the laboratories will allow the graduate technician to quickly become a productive and promotable employee.

Facilities

Two electronics labs located in Davis Career Center are utilized for most of the electronics courses. The labs have good quality bench electronics test equipment, internet access, basic hand tools, personal safety gear, programmable controllers, and various robots.

The Industrial Automation and Maintenance labs in the E.E. Davis Career Center is equipped with work stations constructed with standard industrial electrical and hydraulic components. These work stations allow students to construct and troubleshoot the actual type of electrical circuits used in industry.

Davis Career Center
740-245-7301 office; 740-245-7440 fax

Mission Statement

The objective of the Industrial Technology program is to produce a graduate with skills and knowledge needed for technical management positions in industry. Courses in Industrial Technology supplement the student’s associate degree by additional coursework in subjects not previously studied and/or more advanced courses.

Industrial Technology (IND) is a 2+2 program that provides the second two years of education leading to a Bachelor of Science Degree in Industrial Technology (BSIT). Prior to entering the program, students must have completed an Associate of Science, Associate of Applied Science or Associate of Technical Studies degree in an Engineering Technology field from a regionally accredited university, college, community college, or technical college. Industrial Technology is a comprehensive major requiring at least thirty- three (33) credit hours of 30000/40000 level coursework, a minimum of twenty-four (24) hours of Industrial Technology technical electives, and a minimum of 124 credit hours total.

BSIT graduates have found employment in industries as Manufacturing Engineers, Quality Engineering Technicians, Production Engineering Technicians, and Engineering Managers.

The student will be preparing to take the Certified Manufacturing Technologist Examination given by the Society of Manufacturing Engineers.

Program Admission Requirements

  • Must have an approved Associate degree that can count towards the first two years of the BSIT.
  • 2.0 accumulative GPA in Associates Degree
