MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY

Associate in Applied Science (MFG.AAS)

Restricted Program

At the request of the DANA Corporation and in cooperation with the DANA University instructional staff, management and selected technology technicians, the college has developed this specially designed Associate in Applied Sciences Degree program.

Entry into the Manufacturing Technology Program is restricted to the employees of the DANA Corporation1. The program was designed to be flexible to prepare students for DANA Corporation’s changing needs in the automated manufacturing field and to make it possible to grant credit to DANA students with a journeyman’s card, technical license or for an occupational competency assessment by a recognized agency – certification of occupational/technical training and expertise.

This program has been designed to meet the particular needs of business and industry. Although offered by Oakland Community College, this program is not available to the general public and, therefore, are restricted in use and application.
