Industrial
Technology is primarily involved with
the management, operation, and maintenance
of complex technological systems, while
Engineering is primarily involved with
the design and installation of these
systems Bachelor of Science in Industrial Technology The Bachelors degree is 134 credits and includes such classes as Industrial Safety, Project Engineering, Computer Aided Drafting and Design, Basic Electronics, Labor Law, and Quality. Academic courses in Chemistry, Physics, Psychology, Calculus, Technical writing and other subjects round out an excellent education. In addition to the above coursework, IF campus students may chose a technical emphasis in safety, quality assurance, waste management, or computer electronics. As many as 29 of the 134 credits required for the degree may be earned through prior work experience, military experience, or vocational coursework. This technical competency component makes the degree an attractive one for non-traditional students who bring significant relevant work experience to the program.

Program Coordinator The Masters degree
prepares safety professionals to meet
the challenges of a changing work environment
and to comply with the standards set
by the American Society of Safety Engineers
(ASSE). The ASSE found that safety professionals
have four primary functions in the work
environment. They must: 1. Anticipate, identify,
and evaluate hazardous conditions and
practices. 2. Develop hazard
control designs, methods, procedures,
and programs. 3. Implement, administer,
and advise others on hazard controls
and programs. 4. Measure, audit
and evaluate the effectiveness of hazard
control and hazard control programs. Curriculum for Masters of Science in Safety For more information,
