Integrated Industrial Technology: Certificate of Competence

Description

The Integrated Industrial Technology program at Leeward CC was developed in order to provide students on O‘ahu with a foundation in electronic, electrical, mechanical, and automated control systems to meet the workforce needs of an emerging industrial technology industry.

The IIT Program provides students with a theoretical and practical understanding of mechatronic systems as well as develops practical skills and systems integration. Graduates will be able to program, operate, maintain, calibrate, and repair the equipment that makes up these systems.

The degree prepares students for occupations that involve the integration of electronic, electrical, mechanical, and communications systems. Typical occupations may include: automated programmable electromechanical systems technician, robotics and manufacturing systems technician, and process control systems integration technician.

All required IIT courses must be passed with a grade of “C” or better in order to be applied to all degrees and certificates.

Learning Outcomes

• Use appropriate safety, health, and personal protection procedures applicable to an industrial working environment.
