Bachelor of Applied Science in Technology Management Degree

The BAS in Technology Management provides a technology management component to any technically-oriented associate degree.

 Industry is looking for the combination of technical and managerial expertise.

 Completion of a bachelor's degree in addition to your associate's degree will increase your earning power by 28%.

 Although there are an increasing number of jobs available for graduates of associate degree programs, there are three times as many jobs available for graduates of bachelor's degree programs. The combination of an associate's degree and a bachelor's degree leads to increased opportunity and higher income.

The Bachelor of Applied Science (BAS) in Industrial Technology is an industry-accepted program that builds on technical content gained at the associate's level and finishes with the breadth and management content at the baccalaureate level. The combination of technical and management content prepares graduates for leadership roles related to their area of technical specialty. The Bachelor of Applied Science (BAS) degree is designed to provide those students either currently enrolled or having successfully completed AAS or AS degrees the opportunity to complete a baccalaureate program. The BAS transfers all of the required hours completed at the associates level towards a bachelor's degree. Instead of taking an additional 3 years to complete a bachelor's degree, students can be finished in as little as two years through the BAS program at Missouri State University. Requirements for the degree include completion of: (1) an AAS or AS degree, (2) 12 hours of upper division coursework in the Department of Industrial Management, and (3) general baccalaureate degree requirements.
