Advanced Manufacturing Business (AMB) Program

Why should AMT graduates consider a FAME-aligned Bachelor’s Degree?

• The bachelors degree continues your growth in your chosen career field. It has been specifically developed to give you a unique business/technology education in conjunction with your AMT associate degree.
• It will strengthen your skills and knowledge in your current Technicians who understand the business principles and practices behind their technical work will be:
  • Better prepared to perform at high levels of competence
  • Able to think more deeply about your job and how to better manage you’re your daily and ongoing work.
  • Educated and prepared to a broader and deeper level than your peers who have received a technical education only.
• You can receive up to a 60-credit hour transfer of your academic work in the AMT Program. This is the only business program in the U.S of which we are currently aware that will essentially accept a full associate degree in technology into a bachelors level business program.
• If your employer provides tuition reimbursement you can reach your bachelors degree at significantly lower cost. If you employer provides at least a $5000/year tuition reimbursement benefit, the most common industry standard, you can get your bachelors very little out of pocket expense if you follow the recommended schedule.
• You will be engaged to a greater degree in classes with other AMT graduates also seeking the AMB-designated B.S. in Applied Business Management.
• The FAME Career Pathway is designed to produce the best graduates in the world. By continuing to follow the Pathway you keep yourself at the forefront of manufacturing/technical education.
• As an AMT student and graduate you are probably a continuous learner and seek to always improve yourself. Pursuing the AMB program gives you a track that will last perhaps as far as you wish to go. Your next step is the bachelors degree. There are two masters degrees following that. There are additional programs visioned beyond that.
