Manufacturing and Industrial Technology

Please note

Pending approval from the KCTCS Board of Regents, the new Advanced Industrial Integrated Technology (AIIT) program and associated course work will be implemented at Madisonville Community College starting in January 2009. This new program integrates subject matter presented in the existing Manufacturing and Industrial Technology programs. These include Electronics Technology, Electrical Technology, Industrial Maintenance, Robotics and Automation, Mechanical Technology, and Medical Equipment & Instrumentation. As a result, some existing MIT courses will no longer be available. In order to accommodate students who are currently enrolled in an existing MIT program, such students will be placed into equivalent courses within the new AIIT curriculum so that they may continue to pursue their intended field of study. A map-over chart will be created to assist these students during this program transition phase. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

MIT Description

MIT, which stands for Manufacturing and Industrial Technology, is the divisional name associated with three unique, "in-high-demand", technological areas of study. The three areas of study include: Electrical Technology, Engineering Technology, and Industrial Maintenance Technology. The Engineering Technology area contains several program options within it. Such program options include: Electronics, Medical Equipment and Instrumentation, Robotics and Automation, and Mechanical. All three areas of study (Electrical Technology, Engineering Technology, and Industrial Maintenance Technology) along with their associated program options offer the student a large variety of degree, diploma, and certificate choices from which to pursue (See available credentials below). For more information contact Joey Jones, MIT Programs Coordinator, at (270) 824-1759. Although the Computer Maintenance Specialization under Engineering Technology appears as an MCC offering in the 2006-2007 KCTCS Catalog, it is no longer offered at Madisonville Community College effective Fall 2007.

Information about Associate of Applied Science (AAS) in General Occupational / Technical Studies (GOTS)

Credit earned through certificate and diploma program completion will be applicable toward the Associate in Applied Science in General Occupational / Technical Studies (GOTS) degree when consistent with the objectives of the student's individual plan of study. This heavily advisor-driven model can combine certificates and / or diplomas in different disciplines for meeting employer needs for unique skill combinations for which there is no established degree program.

As many as twenty (20) hours of credit for experiential learning may be applied toward degree completion. KCTCS certificate and diploma credit and acceptable credit transferred from other colleges may also be applied to a student's program completion plan. At least twenty-five percent (25%) of the approved curriculum credits must be completed at the KCTCS institution granting the degree.
