LANSING COMMUNITY COLLEGE
CURRICULAR GUIDE
Supervision, Manufacturing
Associate in Applied Science Degree
Curriculum Code: 0897 (Effective Fall 2000 - Summer 2005)
A supervisor in the manufacturing industry is responsible to management and works
to direct and facilitate production workers. Required skills include a technical
expertise of manufacturing processes and materials, planning and organizational
skills, interpersonal skills, an understanding of how organizations function,
special requirements of the organization such as ISO and QS-9000, and a knowledge
of systems to achieve a quality output. Many supervisors in manufacturing start
their career in an entry-level manufacturing position in which they have acquired
specific technical skills, then are promoted to a supervisory position and have
a need for supervisory skills development. This curriculum provides a foundation
of basic course work in supervision along with choices that allow the student to
customize their program of study to fit the industry in which they work. Not all
courses in this program transfer to all colleges. Students planning to transfer
should see an academic advisor or counselor before enrolling in any course.
