MET and IMMT Bootcamp

RSVP for our in-person boot camp on Friday, December 9 and 10 starting at 8 a.m. to learn what a day in the field is like, meet potential employers, find out what classes are needed to complete the program, and receive assistance with applying to the college!

MET is a 2-year program focused on the commercial HVAC/R (Heating, Ventilation, Air Condition, and Refrigeration) industry as the hours, pay, benefits, and conditions are typically better compared to the residential market.

IMMT grew out of industry needs and the MET department’s expertise in industrial equipment. IMMT focuses on the maintenance and programming of the equipment that moves, processes, or builds the products society consumes.

Industry employers often hire our students before graduation, sometimes even before the start of their classes, with the understanding that the student will attend and complete the program.
