Students will complete a planned program of study consisting of 30-33 credit hours of course work with an overall grade point average of 3.0 or better. The degree course work requires a 15 credit hour Major Technology Core selected from one of two approved Technology Core Areas: Technology Coordinator or Special Education Technology. Students will select the Major Technology Core with the approval of an academic advisor. The Major Technology Core builds a strong set of technology skills and background. The course work also requires a nine hour Minor Technology Core that is related to the technology career goals of the student and approved by an academic advisor. The minor core must be different from the major core and have at least two of the three courses at the 600 level.
