The Master of Industrial Technology and
Operations (MITO) is a professional degree designed for individuals who
plan to make their careers in industry. The purpose of the MITO
program is to enhance the ability of the students to pursue their
professional goals by providing up-to-date knowledge of the technologies
and modern management approaches used in world-class industrial
companies. The MITO curriculum prepares students to move into
management, supervisory and staff positions in industry. The MITO
is not an MBA or an engineering degree, therefore it is not recommended
for those planning to pursue careers in academia or research.
ITO courses are
presented live at IIT's Main Campus in Chicago and Rice Campus in Wheaton, IL.
The ITO program can be completed over the Internet. Using a
delayed Internet format (lecture videos are posted within 24 hours after
the live session), students can log on and "attend" class at the time
and location of their choice. A demonstration of IIT web-based
courses is available at
www.iit-online.iit.edu.
The ITO degree requires
completion of 30 semester hours (generally 10 courses). Each
student's program of study is customized to best serve individual career
objectives. Of particular
note, MITO graduate students may choose to complete a
professional specialization in Industrial Facilities (IF), Industrial
Logistics (IL), or Manufacturing Technology (MT).
