Abstract

Courses in trades and industries were first taught at Iowa State in 1913. The curriculum slowly expanded until the Department of Industrial Education was established in 1968. The name was changed to the Department of Industrial Education and Technology in 1982. The program was absorbed by the Department of Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering in 2004. This collection contains creative component essays and field reports that satisfied requirements for a non-thesis graduate degree in industrial education and technology.

 

Historical note

Courses in trades and industries were first offered in 1913 by the Division of Engineering. In 1928, trades and industries became known as industrial arts. By 1939, industrial arts was incorporated into the curriculum of the Department of Vocational Education, later known as the Department of Education, which was administered by the Division of Agriculture. The following year industrial arts was renamed industrial education. With the establishment of the College of Education in 1968, Industrial Education was given departmental status and administered by the newly formed College.

Renamed the Department of Industrial Education and Technology in 1982, the program prepared students for careers in industrial trades and as industrial arts educators. Students could receive a variety of education certifications, including drivers’ safety and education or industrial vocation certifications. Alternatively, the program prepared students for work in industry in areas such as quality assurance, product process control, computer applications, occupational safety, or product systems analysis.

In 2004, the department was absorbed by the Department of Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering at which time options for studying industrial education were phased out. As of 2014, the Curriculum in Industrial Technology offered two options of study, manufacturing and occupational safety.
