Technology Partners
Technology partners in our classrooms and labs give students an edge.
Our Information Systems and Technology students have to be well-versed in the technology they’ll use in that all-important first job and beyond. Thanks to the partnerships we feature here, our students have that experience; the technology is woven into the curriculum and applied learning projects ensure our graduates are ready to make an impact for the employers who hire them. After all, we can’t provide real-world, immersive education without incorporating these major players into what we teach, every day.
