For Associate in Applied Science graduates in Electronics, Data Processing, Marketing Mid-Management, Mechanical Technology, Industrial Maintenance and other technically oriented majors to name a few.

The Industrial Technology program at Southern Illinois University is geared to assist technically oriented Associate in Applied Science graduates in pursuing, under the Capstone Program, a Bachelors Degree in Manufacturing at Southern Illinois University.

Typical courses would include:  robotics, manufacturing processes, computer aided manufacturing, quality control and time/motion studies at Southern Illinois University.

Prerequisites and program requirements at Southern Illinois University vary because of the many Associate in Applied Science areas feeding into Industrial Technology.  In general, regular Associate in Applied Science requirements coupled with typical Capstone requirements of Southern Illinois University will suffice with the following exceptions strongly recommended prior to Southern Illinois University enrollment.

1. MATH 111 - College Algebra and MATH 125 - Introductory Analysis at DACC.
2. Two semesters of college physics (non-engineering) Physics 101 and 102 at DACC.
3. Introduction to Psychology - PSYC 100 as the Social Science elective.
4. Technical Reports.
5. Business Computer Systems - CBUS 150.
6. DACC recommends a three (3) hour course in Third World or Non-Western Culture, either in Humanities or Social Science.
7. Effective Fall 1992, new students or re-entering students absent more than two years and seeking an A.S.A. degree are required to take at least one course with human relations content.  See your counselor for a list of courses that fulfill this requirement.
8. Three (3) hour course from approved SIUC--Humanities General Education Course Substitution List.

Transfer students in Industrial Technology with an Associate Degree from a baccalaureate-oriented program are not required to complete the University's General Education requirements.  However, the Industrial Technology program accreditation requires as a minimum, nine semester hours of English composition and speech and ten semester hours of social sciences and humanities.

Students with an Associate in Applied Science degree from a regionally accredited institution may qualify for the Capstone Option Program.  A special application is required for Capstone and must be submitted no later than the completion of the student's first semester in Industrial Technology at SIUC.  The Capstone Option Program has the following general education requirements:
 

Non-Capstone students must complete the general education requirements as listed in the Undergraduate Catalog.
