Bachelor of Science Industrial Technology

B.S. Industrial Technology
Engineering Without The Math

Accelerated 2 Year 8 Month Program
At a Cost of $2950 USD per year
($8850 USD Total Program Cost)

Summary: When we lightly refer to our program as “engineering without the math”, we do not mean no math!! We mean that advanced engineering mathematics will not be required. Typical business math, how to read corporate financial reports, and other relevant computational skills are covered. After 4 years of development, we have settled upon what we feel to be the very best programs to offer to you in Industrial Technology. This program is designed for the person that wants to work in industry, or for federal and state regulatory agencies.

What is “Industrial Technology”?? From Wikipedia we have: Industrial Technology includes wide ranging subject matter, which is an amalgamation of industrial engineering and business topics with more focus on the practicality and management of technical systems and less focus on the actual engineering of those systems.

B.S. Industrial Engineering Degree at Blue Marble University. Engineering without the math! Online program can be completed in 2 years 8 months. Only at Blue Marble University. Food Distribution: The state of the industry relating to distribution processes. The course includes consideration of import and export procedures and regulations regarding rice, wheat, corn and other commodities. 3 Credits Food Storage: A discussion of all the different types of storage techniques relating to different food and commodities. The course also covers global food supplies and what the future holds for food shortages. 3 Credits Online Portfolio (2): Research Project. This segment requires a research project to be completed and published to the student’s online website. Updating and development of the student’s digital portfolio are stressed. The subject of the project will be determined jointly by the student and faculty and must demonstrate the student’s writing ability and mastery of a topic. 3 Credits Water Resources:What they are, who has them, and how control is effected. This course necessarily relates to natural water resources. The course introduces the business of water. 3 Credits Water Chemistry: The properties of water, including natural and artificial additives, and Water Production and Filtration Technology. Manufacturing processes and filtration technologies. 3 Credits Saltwater Separation: the production of water from the sea. Large scale facilities are studied and possible new approaches are investigated. Also reviewed is the means of obtaining water from glaciers, the north and south poles.4 Credits Wastewater:The water nobody wants. How to treat it using chemical and biological methods. How to get clean water from waste water. A review of companies engaged in this field, as well as the consideration of cost analyses, and the new technologies. 4 Credits Colloquium and Independent research: We pull together the concepts previously covered and the student conducts literature investigation or field exercise in some aspect of interest, for publication on his/her digital portfolio. 4 Credits Year 4 Big Oil: An outline of this massive global industry that is still making ordinary people wealthy is presented. Topics covered include: the basics of oil and gas production from reservoir to sales point; common terminology for equipment; basic oil and gas field concepts, the wellhead and other equipment. 4 Credits Oil and Gas Transport:Transmission and processing. 4 Credits Oil Chemistry: A massive topic, we focus on the business aspects and companies involved in producing products from oil and gas. 4 Credits Oil Reserves and Sales:How oil is sold internationally, the “price of a barrel” of oil, oil as a commodity. 4 Credits Shale oil and Fracking: An exploration of the technique and controversies.
4 Credits Clean Coal Processing: The techniques for extracting oil and energy from coal. A comparison of costs of processing oil and coal is made. 4 Credits Colloquium: A discussion and study of a current topic of interest within the oil industry 4 Credits Oil and Gas Careers:Where the jobs are what kinds of jobs are available is presented. This course explores this topic from the business side of the oil industry through a review of the major players and study of annual reports 4 Credits
The Big Four Industries

Industrial engineers focus on how to get the work done most efficiently, balancing many factors, such as time, number of workers needed, available technology, actions workers need to take, achieving the end product with no errors, workers’ safety, environmental concerns, and cost. To find ways to reduce waste and improve performance, industrial engineers study product requirements carefully. Then they use mathematical methods and models to design manufacturing and information systems to meet those requirements most efficiently. Their versatility allows industrial engineers to engage in activities that are useful to a variety of businesses, and governmental undertakings. For example, industrial engineers engage in supply chain management to help businesses minimize inventory costs, conduct quality assurance activities to help businesses keep their customer bases satisfied, and work in the growing field of project management as industries across the economy seek to control costs and maximize efficiencies.” [Wikipedia]

JOBS: “When compared to other jobs, industrial engineer careers are projected to have a growth rate described as “faster than average” at 8% from 2018 through 2028. This is in accordance with the Bureau of Labor Statistics. What’s more is that the projected number of opportunities that are predicted to become available for an industrial engineer by 2028 is 23,800. On average, industrial engineers earn $77,135 per year, which translates to $37.08 an hour. Generally speaking, industrial engineers earn anywhere from $59,000 to $99,000 a year, which means that the top-earning industrial engineers make a whopping $40,000 more than the ones at the lower end of the spectrum.”

You can check for available Industrial Engineering jobs (sometimes called process engineers) on Indeed, Glassdoor, and other employment services.

Graduates of our program are expected to find positions in major industries like food, water, oil, and global transportation; and to serve in supervisory, technical, and administrative positions.

The curriculum says it all, and we feel our offering is not only unique, but can be handled by students of average intelligence. And a degree in Industrial Technology will “get you in the door” to an interview, and is way superior to a general business degree, due to being unusual and also being perceived as relevant and important.
