Moving the College of Technology from Good to Great

Strategic Plan cover graphic It is time for the College of Technology to lead this nation in the definition and preparation of the 21st century technologist. This can be accomplished through a shared vision that goes well beyond our individual needs and the needs of any single department or program. The college has an opportunity to be the thought leader for the nation in preparing graduates that will become the engine of change necessary to revitalize and grow the economy of Indiana and the nation. This higher purpose and shared vision will be our focal point for everything we do and every decision we make; the definition and preparation of the 21st Century Technologist. . . .
