Fields of Graduate Instruction - Textile Technology Management

Textile Technology Management is a multidisciplinary program designed to educate students for research and management careers in technology management in the fiber, textile, apparel and related industries complex. The program is designed to give the students a breadth of knowledge of the materials and technologies employed in the industries as well as the quantitative and analytical tools of management.

Admission Requirements: Students majoring in textiles; industrial, systems and manufacturing engineering; statistics; operations research; computer science; economics; consumer economics; marketing; and business administration, and having an average in their undergraduate studies of 3.5/4.0 and a Master's degree will normally qualify for admission. Exceptionally qualified students (3.75/4.0 undergraduate GPA) may be admitted directly without a Master's degree.

Doctoral Degree Requirements: Fixed credit-hour requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy degree are 72. (Up to 18 hours from an M.S. may be applied against the 72.) Students are admitted to candidacy for the Ph.D. degree after passing two preliminary written and oral examinations (the first covering manufacturing technology and the second the management of technology) and orally defending a research proposal. They must also have passed an English technical writing course during their college career and, depending on the nature of their research interests, may also be required to demonstrate a reading knowledge of one foreign language.

Student Financial Support:  Financial aid in the form of assistantships and fellowships is normally available for all U.S. full-time students. Financial aid in the form of Graduate Research/Teaching Assistantships may be available to a limited number of international students.

Course Offerings: Extensive use may be made of graduate course offerings in other colleges on campus when developing the minor field. See departmental listing for descriptions.
