This degree is designed for entry level students pursing careers in the HVACR industries, as well as experienced technicians in need of upgrade training. 

The program focuses on the basic operating principles of commercial and industrial HVAC systems, allowing one to pursue careers in sales, service, design, facilities operation, project management, or as a laboratory technician for an equipment manufacturer.

These principles are presented through lecture and laboratory exercises in a step-by-step fashion by addressing refrigeration, heating, distribution, filtration and control as individual subsystems.  Upper level courses tie the subsystems together to discuss how they interact, providing the HVACR technician or designer with a wealth of knowledge regarding proper system operation.
