The Industrial Maintenance Technology program prepares students for a broad range of industrial maintenance related careers using industry-guided curriculum combined with practical hands-on labs. First year studies include hand & power tools, precision measurement, fasteners, mechanical drawings, machine components, electrical circuits & prints, mechanical power transmission, machining, piping, robotics, rigging, pneumatics & hydraulics. During the second year, students learn pumps & compressors, PLC’s (Programmable Logic Controllers), electric motors & transformers, electric motor controls, and troubleshooting industrial maintenance equipment. Students gain experience and skills in many industrial subjects so they enter industry as a multi-craft, skilled-trades professional. Students learn to think critically and apply their knowledge to solve problems on the plant and factory floor. Students learn employability skills and how to successfully work in teams. This program produces what today’s industry requires: a college educated multi-skilled professional to successfully tackle the 21st century industrial environment. Students have the option of an alternate 2nd year emphasis in Advanced Manufacturing Technology. This encompasses computer-integrated manufacturing and automation, and Industry 4.0/IIoT (the Industrial Internet of Things). Marketable skills for this award include: building effective relationships, critical thinking, customer service, and technical skills.
The General Technology major allows students to select course work necessary to become multi-skilled technicians. In addition to completing the college's core curriculum, students also complete course work in at least two technical areas. The following is an example of a career path available. The secondary paths may be substituted for courses in other programs' primary path. Interested students should talk with their advisors.Graduates of this career path are employed as automated controls technicians, electrical and instrumentation technicians, or robotics and automation technicians at manufacturing plants, chemical plants, food and beverage plants, water systems, and energy generation facilities. Job duties include installing, maintaining and repairing various types of electro-mechanical automation equipment.Students can earn only one General Technology degree in a single career path.

An Occupational Skills Award (OSA) is the most basic sequence of courses that will prepare students for employment. Students are not able to declare an OSA as a major, or pursue one as an end goal. However, almost all OSAs are built into other certificates and/or majors, and they will be automatically awarded to students as they complete coursework in those certificates and/or majors.
Job Corps’ Electrical training program teaches students the skills needed to work with electrical systems in homes, businesses and factories, including how to install, maintain and repair electrical power, communications, lighting and control systems in places of all sizes, read blueprints and diagrams and will need to follow state and local building regulations, and use various hand tools and power tools. These skills prepare students for jobs as electricians across industries, including in the construction, manufacturing or engineering industries. Students who complete the Electrical training program can earn industry-recognized credentials from the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) and certifications in construction health and safety from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
Job Corps’ Electrical, Pre-Apprentice training program teaches students the skills needed to work with electrical systems in homes, businesses and factories, including how to install, maintain and repair electrical power, communications, lighting and control systems in places of all sizes, read blueprints and diagrams and will need to follow state and local building regulations, and use various hand tools and power tools. This program specifically prepares students for a Registered Apprenticeship after graduation. Students who complete the Electrical, Pre-Apprentice training program can earn industry-recognized credentials from the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) and certifications in construction health and safety from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
This course will give a student the foundations in manufacturing to develop the knowledge and competencies needed in the advanced manufacturing industry. Outcomes will be to understand manufacturing as a business system that integrates multiple disciplines, processes, and stakeholders; to improve processes and schedules to meet customer requirements; to efficiently and safely manage raw materials/consumables. This program is also an approved USDOL/NYSDOL/SUNY apprenticeship skill trade.
The Associate in Applied Science (AAS) degrees in Industrial Technology are designed to provide a broad base of instruction and industrial knowledge that will prepare the graduate to enter the technical work force upon graduation.
The mechatronics technology skills certificate introduces learners to the basic skills needed for employment in today's complex manufacturing environments. These classes all apply to the mechatronics technology certificate and associate degree.
Ready yourself for in-demand HVAC/R technician jobs working on residential or commercial air conditioning systems, or for positions as a sales representative or a control services technician
The Machine Shop Technology program is designed to prepare individuals for employment in the industry as a machinist. Machinists produce precision metal parts, using machine tools such as lathes, drill presses, and milling machines. Also, machinists and tool programmers set up and operate a wide variety of machine tools, using their knowledge of the working properties of metals.They plan and carry out the operations needed to make machined products that meet precise specifications. Students in the Machine Shop Technology Program manufacture, assemble, and repair metal parts, subassemblies, and complete machines. Increasingly the machines used to produce these metal parts are numerically controlled and most of those are computer numerically controlled (CNC). Students in this program are required to participate in 3rd party credentialing such as (NIMS) and (NOCTI) activities prior to graduation. Program OverviewCareer OutlookCurriculum
