Pellissippi State begins fast-track degree in industrial maintenance
Want to advance in an engineering technology career but don’t have the time? Thanks to a program beginning fall semester at Pellissippi State, people who work full time can complete a two-year associate’s degree in Engineering Technology with a concentration in Industrial Maintenance in only 20 months.
The full-time program meets 4:30-8:30 p.m. two or three evenings a week over five accelerated semesters, and it’s specifically intended for individuals working full time. Students enroll in the fall and take classes with the same group of peers, or cohort, throughout the program.
The Industrial Maintenance concentration prepares students for careers in large manufacturing companies, working as multicraft, industrial machinery maintenance and repair technicians.
“This new concentration gives students the chance to improve their education and skill level and advance to a supervisory role at their current place of employment,” said Anthony Wise, vice president of the Learning Division at Pellissippi State.
Scholarships are available that cover tuition, fees and books. For more information, call at 694-6400.
