The General Technology program is designed to allow students the opportunity to create a course of study that meets individual needs and goals. Working with the program coordinator, the General Technology major drafts a degree contract listing all courses the student will complete to earn the degree. The program’s flexibility is most advantageous to the individual whose employment or career goals are clearly defined. Contracts are initiated by the program coordinator and approved by the department chair.
