Bachelor of Science - Industrial Education Transfer Programs
The Department of Industrial Education at Purdue University, West Lafayette campus, offers programs leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Industrial Education (B.5.1.Ed.) with a specialty in industrial arts or vocational-industrial education. Students who wish to enter one of these programs may start their academic studies at IUPUI and transfer to the West Lafayette campus of Purdue University to complete the remaining degree requirements.
Students can complete all of the general education requirements and some of the professional and technical course requirements toward the vocational-industrial teaching program at IUPUL Two full years of course work may be completed toward a degree in industrial arts teaching. The remaining requirements for the Bachelor of Science in Industrial Education de- gree must be completed by registering through Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana.
In order to qualify for the degree of B.5.LEd., the student must:
1. Complete the curriculum requirements in industrial education as listed in one of the plans of study which follow, with a selection of electives appropriate for the major area of spe- cialization;
2. Complete the required number of semester hours of course work;
3. Present evidence of industrial work experience when such is required in certain curricula.
Industrial Arts Plans of Study
Teaching Option Prospective teachers of industrial arts study a broad core program of gen- eral education subjects essential for all teachers. In addition, they develop technical competen- cies that will enable them to present effective instruction covering a broad range of industrial tools and materials, and they develop their teaching skills through their student teaching as- signments.
Excellent employment opportunities have been consistently available to graduates in industrial arts teaching. The demand for industrial arts teachers continues to exceed the number of qual- ified graduates.
Industrial Technology Option A "no-Ioss-of-credit" plan is available for students in the in- dustrial arts curriculum who plan to enter industrial or business careers. Under this plan a student may delay a decision on whether or not to teach until the end of the junior year.
During the first three years, all students follow the same industrial arts curriculum, receiving a broad background in general and technical education. In the senior year, students who elect an industrial career enroll in advanced industrial and technical courses rather than in courses taken by students planning to teach.

Industrial Technology Option - Plan of Study
The industrial technology option is available for students who plan to enter industrial or busi- ness careers. Under this option a student may delay a decision on whether to pursue a career in teaching or in industry until the end of the junior year. During the first three years all students follow the same general industrial arts curriculum which develops a broad back- ground of general and technical education. In the senior year, students who elect industrial careers concentrate on advanced industrial and technical courses.
Graduates of the industrial technology option are finding excellent career opportunities in in- dustry and business as sales representatives, supervisors, foremen, marketing representatives, manufacturing trainees, inspectors, production management trainees, cost study analysts, re- search technicians, test engineers, and quality control specialists.
A student electing the industrial technology option will follow a fourth year curriculum plan similar to the following:

15 The vocational-industrial curriculum prepares competent instructors to teach in such skilled trade or technical areas as drafting, auto mechanics, machine trades, electronics, and building trades. Certification procedures require that a teacher demonstrate competency in the particu- lar occupational or trade area in which he or she plans to teach. Since occupational skills and knowledge are the content to be taught, trade teachers are granted credit toward their degrees in the amount of one-fourth of the total degree requirement when they are able to demon- strate occupational or trade competency. Thus, majors entering the program without having developed occupational competency in a trade area are required to gain the necessary work experience as part of the regular degree program. Essential work experience is normally gained by an alternating plan whereby the student takes classes one semester and then works at the trade for a semester. This plan enables the student to alternate between work and on campus classes while obtaining course credits, occupational competency, and money which will help defray educational expenses.
Three years of full-time work experience are generally required as evidence of trade compe- tency; but recent changes in the state certification pattern now enable universities to recognize high school vocational courses, associate degrees, apprenticeship programs, and combinations thereof to shorten the time requirement.
An individual who has several years of industrial-technical experience in a specific occupation may enter the program and establish his or her competency by scoring satisfactorily on writ- ten and performance tests. Successful evaluation allows such an individual to receive a maxi- mum of 32 semester hours, or one-fourth of the degree program.
Graduates become employed in full-time vocational programs in public high schools, in area vocational-technical centers, or in a variety of other institutions, including private institutions.
They may serve as either a craft or occupational instructor or as a teacher of related subjects.
They may, in addition, be called upon to teach apprentices or workers who attend part-time or evening school classes. Increasingly, demands are made upon the qualified vocational- industrial teacher to help adults prepare for work in occupations in which there are shortages of trained workers.
Program courses or substitute courses are offered on the IUPUI campus, except for those courses marked by a footnote(l). Students must register for these courses through Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana.
