The Advanced Manufacturing Technician Program (AMT)
WHAT IS THE ADVANCED MANUFACTURING TECHNICIAN (AMT) PROGRAM?
AMT is a dual-track, five-semester program that matches education with continuous real-world working experience through a leading manufacturer. The AMT program combines proven workplace components of apprenticeship with the earn-and-learn model in subjects including electricity, fluid power, mechanics, fabrication and robotics. The result is paid work experience that includes hands-on application and the best practices of a world-class manufacturer. Students who complete this program receive the AMT certification and an associate degree in applied science.
PATHWAY OPTIONS
Students who participate in the INFAME program are making a decision that will give them multiple career options. The Advanced Manufacturing Technician (AMT) degree is only the beginning. Upon completion of this associate degree, students can continue full-time employment or seamlessly transition into a degree program in business or engineering.
THE INFAME DIFFERENCE
Students sponsored through INFAME are not only receiving training for a future job, they also are obtaining a high-level technical education and practical job experience.
