Overview and Degree Map
Manufacturing and Industrial Technology (MIT)
Skilled workers such as machine operators and maintenance technicians are in high demand in Oregon and across the United States. The Manufacturing and Industrial Technology program combines traditional skills like welding, machining, and fluid power while focusing on efficiency and process control. This field is hands- on and requires a knowledge of processes, the ability to trouble shoot, and a dedication to quality in workmanship. If you have an interest in a hands-on career and working with mechanical and industrial systems, then this program may be a good fit for you.
Career opportunities as maintenance technicians in electro-mechanical systems and automation are available in Tillamook and across Oregon.
High school students can earn college credit for some courses. See your high school counselor to learn more.
Associate of Applied Science in Manufacturing & Industrial Technology: 90 credits
All degree candidates must meet Comprehensive Requirements, and the AAS degree requirements.
The Associate of Applied Science in Manufacturing and Industrial Technology has five Career Pathway certificates. All courses earned toward certificates also count toward the degree.
