PROGRAM CODE: AAS.INDMAINTECH
Industrial Maintenance Technology (IMT) is a program that prepares students to succeed as maintenance technicians in industry. IMT graduates perform mechanical and electrical maintenance of manufacturing equipment such as machine tools, automated process equipment and buildings systems to keep production operational. Maintenance technicians study subjects from a wide variety of technical disciplines ranging from welding to industrial electronics to robotics. This is a high-wage, high-demand field that typically attracts talented people who are excellent problem solvers and enjoy challenging work.
RELATED INSTRUCTION OUTCOMES
Computation (1 course- MTH-050 Technical Mathematics I)
- Use appropriate mathematics to solve problems.
Communication (1 course- WR-101 Communication Skills: Occupational Writing)
- Read actively, think critically, and write purposefully and capably for professional audiences.
Human Relations (1 course- COMM-100- Basic Speech Communication)
- Engage in ethical communication processes that accomplish goals.
Physical Education/Health/Safety/First Aid (3 credits- MFG-107 Industrial Safety & First Aid)
- Use effective life skills to improve and maintain mental and physical wellbeing.
PROGRAM OUTCOMES
Upon successful completion of this program, students should be able to:
- work safely in an industrial environment around machinery, power equipment, heat, chemicals and electricity;
- troubleshoot, install and repair complex electromechanical systems by using knowledge of electrical and mechanical fundamentals, diagnostic instruments, and hand and power tools;
- use knowledge of manufacturing and welding processes to execute the repair and replacement of machine elements;
- effectively apply computer technology to the automation and control of manufacturing and building systems;
- communicate effectively through graphical means including schematics, diagrams, engineering drawing and sketches to determine system functions to effect repairs and improve performance.
