You spend 2 more years paying for a degree that gets you the same operations plant job as the p-tech degree from a community college, baw.

What is an operations plant job and is it any good?

Approx $100,000 a year plus benefits. Depends on where your live. Whether it's chemical plant/oil & gas, or offshore also matters. Or you could get the industrial tech degree and work for a road crew building roundabouts for the state.

At ULL the ME students used to write "ITech degree" on all of the toilet paper dispensers.
With that being said, I know some very successful guys in construction and O&G with that degree. They had to hustle and work their way up through the shite first though.

Man forgive my ignorance on all this. You seem to know what you're talking about.
A couple of questions what are round abouts and is the bachelors at selu really a better option than a community college certification or whatever?
The other guy basically says they're the same.

You already failed, baw. Better go the p-tech route.

A roundabout is a circle interchange on a roadway. The process technology degree is a 2 year associates or 4 year bachelor in applied science. The industrial tech degrees covers a broader spectrum of jobs you could potentially apply for. Google man!

I'm not asking for me.

I have googled. There's alot of generalized info. Nothing very specific.
I was hoping there were some guys around here that had some useful and practical opinions/experiences.

Geez man come on. Save that for the rant. I'm looking for your expertise here.
Seriously. Do you know anything about this kinda stuff?
I have a young cousin that's looking into getting an industrial technology bachelor's degree from selu.
If you know something about this it would be helpful.

Thanks for that man. It's helpful.
Three questions.
What is GSP? What is CSP? And do you have a rough salary range for the sorta jobs you're describing?

Yes it is a good degree. You can work in manufacturing, Chemical or Oil & Gas plants, industrial contractors, industrial sales, engineering firms, etc.
I only knew of one person in my graduating class become an operator. Its popular for people persuing a Industrial Tech (SELU) degree to say they want to be project manager. I can tell you that it can get you there but you can obtain a highly skilled non manager position and make as much as project managers.
I do scheduling, cost, estimating and have done it on the contractor side, engineering and as a client rep.

With what is going right now with the state IT department, you may want to change that to Information Technology as there may be a whole bunch of positions that may open up in the state IT department.
