Program Overview
The constantly changing manufacturing and industrial sector calls for well-trained, adaptable managers. Organizations need supervisors who are capable of designing processes, interpreting policies, managing technological resources, improving communications and interpersonal relationships, and motivating employees. MCC’s Industrial Management and Technology Program prepares students for these leadership positions.
Offerings include two certificates and an associate’s degree. The degree program covers supervisory skills; manufacturing materials, processes and procedures; and managerial functions, focusing on actual workplace issues. Later courses provide more concentrated study in production and inventory control, continuous improvement practices, personnel relations, cost and quality control, and maintenance and safety practices.

The primary purpose of an Associate in Applied Science degree is to prepare students for employment. The AAS degree is not designed specifically for transfer; however, there are opportunities to apply some coursework or the whole degree to a bachelor’s degree program. For more information, see an academic advisor and the department chair.
