Program Description:

The Process Operations program curriculum is provided by Itasca Community College (ICC) and was created utilizing existing ICC course curriculum where possible, e.g., industrial math, technical writing, physics, etc. The Process Operations curriculum was created with emphasis on the technical and hands-on skills required for process technicians.

The specialized course development was divided into the following three areas: Process Fundamentals, Industrial Technologies, & Professional Development. Industrial Technologies includes the following courses:

  • Industrial Technologies I
  • Industrial Technologies II (Parts B & C)
  • Industrial Technologies III
  • Industrial Technologies IV

Course Description:

ENGT 2220 Process Operations Technical III is intended to introduce students to the operator work documentation, procedures, and hands-on skills of the process operations industry. It is the third in a series of courses on technical knowledge and focuses on larger industrial equipment.

Course goals and outcomes include:

  • Students will be able follow procedures, identify and fix incorrect procedures, and write procedures for use by others.
  • Students will be able to recognize and understand how to manipulate manual, automatic, and cascade control systems.
  • Students will be able to describe work orders, their correct use, and their importance in a working environment.
  • Students will use process logs and incident reporting to log notes about the condition of the Hot Unit processes, current state of operations, abnormalities, and operational run time.

Course Contents:

Course materials include a program overview, a PowerPoint presentation, eleven student competency documents, and eight journal entry prompts. The 1-page Process Operations Program Overview document includes information about the National Science Foundation grant project that resulted in the development of this curriculum.

The student competency documents include information about each unit of the course, including outcomes, lectures, demonstrations, labs, and homework.

The journal entry documents contain a prompt for students to respond to and reflect upon the unit.
