Bellingham Technical College now offers its first Bachelor of Applied Science degree in Operations Management. BTC’s Bachelor of Applied Science in Operations Management is a two-year online degree that can be added on top of an existing associate degree or even a previous bachelor’s degree to get you on track for higher level, higher pay positions — from production and facility supervisors to managers and VPs of operations. Operations management is the management of processes, people, technology, and organizations that produce goods or services. Graduates can find careers in businesses and industries ranging from fisheries to the automotive industry, but BTC’s initial focus is on manufacturing and information technology. Classes for the Operations Management bachelor’s are online but will include group work on some Saturdays as an opportunity for students to network and learn from one another.
