The Department of Technology Systems offers graduate programs leading to the graduate certificate, the master of science, and a consortium-based doctor of philosophy (PhD). The department is a leading proponent of collaborative network-based learning and offers many of its graduate programs online. Students are expected to be proficient in use of a personal computer and have access to high speed internet service.
Graduate certificates offered through the department include: computer network professional, cyber security professional, lean six-sigma black-belt (LSSBB), and website developer. The department also offers master of science (MS) programs in network technology, occupational safety, and technology management. The MS in network technology includes studies in the areas of computer networking management, digital communications technology, information security, and web technologies. The MS in occupational safety builds upon expertise in foundational regulatory and technical aspects of occupational safety and is a standalone degree program. The MS in technology management includes study in the areas of industrial distribution and logistics, manufacturing systems, and quality systems. The doctor of philosophy (PhD) in technology management is designed to prepare scholars for leadership positions in education, industry, government, and business. The PhD is offered through a five-university consortium with the degree being awarded through Indiana State University. Graduates from all of these graduate programs are prepared to manage rapidly changing technologies and technical systems.
