Degrees Offered - Industrial Maintenance Technology (AAS)

Record details

The Industrial Maintenance Technology program prepares students for a broad range of industrial maintenance-related careers using an industry-guided curriculum combined with practical hands-on labs.

First-year studies focus on concepts and technologies that include, but are not limited to, basic electrical theory and print reading, maintenance concepts (mechanical and electrical), mechanical drives, piping, boiler operation, rigging, pneumatics, and hydraulics.

During the second year, students are introduced to pumps and compressors as well as motors, transformers, programmable logic controllers, and principles of heating and cooling. While in this program, students gain experience and skills in a wide variety of disciplines, such as mechanical, electrical, and HVAC/R.
