About the Program

Highly valued by employers, the dual degree in industrial technology and industrial distribution provides the strengths of both fields in one degree. Because most manufacturers work with wholesale distribution partners, it is beneficial for them to understand the concept of logistics, supply chains and distribution. Likewise, distribution professionals can enhance their credibility with manufacturers by demonstrating technical knowledge about how products are designed and created.

Special features

  • Enjoy some of the highest salaries offered in this field by demonstrating knowledge of both areas
  • Benefit from faculty experience in industrial careers
