Facility Management Technology, Associate
in Applied Science (FTEC)
Most large corporate enterprises have individuals within their organizational
structure charged with the duties of planning and operating the physical
facility that houses the organization and its operations. For many companies,
these facilities are the largest part of the corporate assets, and their
management has become a critical corporate function. There is a growing
recognition of the need for sophisticated skills and knowledge in performing
this function. Today, the field of facility management is an emerging profession
with strong potential for future growth and development.
The Philadelphia Chapter of the International Facility Management
Association has joined with the College to develop the Facility Management
Technology program. The goal is to provide educational programs for the
continuing education and professionalization of current facility managers, and
for the basic preparation of individuals seeking entry to this field.
The program combines studies in technical topics such as building systems,
and planning and design documentation, with business and management
related course work. There is also an opportunity for specialization or
advanced study through the Facility Management career electives, as well as
the opportunity for initial career exposure through a CSEL/internship.
Upon successful completion of this program, students should be able to:
• interpret architectural drawings and specifications.
• Understand and demonstrate knowledge of various materials and systems
of building operation and construction.
• Utilize computer systems for communication in technical drafting and
documentation, project planning and management.
• Discuss basic principles of law and real estate practice in applications of
facility management.
• Communicate with clarity and organization in a facility management
environment, both orally and in writing.
• Apply basic knowledge and skills of facility management in the
investigation and resolution of facility management problems requiring
critical analysis.

MAT 140, MAT 141 or MAT 160, MAT 161 may be elected instead.
Facility Management Electives
Facility Management elective courses are an important part of the program.
These courses give the curriculum a flexible component that allows entry-level
students to pursue a specific area of specialization and allows practitioners to
strengthen areas in their professional experience.
Facility Management majors select FM elective courses from an approved list
of recommended courses. The list has been established (and will be reviewed
for revision periodically) by the FM faculty in consultation with the IFMA
Education Committee. With permission of an academic advisor and dean, a
student may request consideration of alternate courses for the FM elective by
submitting a course substitution form.
