To assist you in seeing some of the education options that are available to you, Trade College Search has created its Best Value Industrial Production Technology Associate Degree Schools ranking. This report analyzed 75 schools in the United States to see which ones offered the best value associate degree programs for industrial production tech students. The goal was to highlight schools with more affordable prices than others offering similar quality experiences.
When determining this ranking, we place a high emphasis on the school's quality as well as its sticker price. Even though a college may be affordable, it may not offer value. More specifically, we discount our quality score by the published tuition and fees charged by a school. This gives the cost per unit of quality for each college. The value is determined by how much quality your dollar buys.
Our calculations use out-of-state tuition and fees in our nationwide and regional rankings. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.
