An established partnership between the Department of Industrial Technology and Management and the International Union of Operating Engineers (IUOE) Local 399 helps support individuals who wish to earn a bachelor’s or a master’s degree with a specialization in facilities management.
Bachelor of Industrial Technology and Management
The Bachelor of Industrial Technology and Management (BINTM) is designed to prepare skilled adults for managerial positions in industry. It is a transfer program for students who have completed an Associate of Applied Science (or equivalent coursework) in Facilities Engineering Technology at Triton College, or other HVAC or stationary engineering programs at a regional community college including Moraine Valley Community College, College of DuPage, Harper College, Oakton Community College, or Joliet Junior College. Obtaining a BINTM degree requires a total of 126 credits, which is accomplished by transferring 60 credits from an accredited college and completing 66 credits at Illinois Institute of Technology.
Scholarships are available for both part-time and full-time undergraduate students.
IUOE Local 399 members whose employers contribute to the Education Training Fund may qualify for tuition assistance through Local 399.
