Industrial and Environmental Technologies
Rapid advancements in the Industrial Technologies areas make the need for current education and training essential. Southeastern Tech's Industrial Technologies programs combine classroom study and practical training emphasizing skill development, related technical knowledge, and general education.
Southeastern Tech offers a wide selection of degrees, diplomas and certificates. These programs are offered on both a full-time and part-time basis.
General Education Core Competencies
The overall goal of a college education is to help students become productive citizens. The General Education core contributes to this concept by providing a variety of learning experiences which ensure that graduates are intellectually prepared for lifelong learning.
STC has identified the following general education core competencies that graduates will attain.
- The ability to utilize standard written English.
- The ability to solve practical mathematical problems.
- The ability to read, analyze, and interpret information.
- The ability to utilize basic computer skills.
Beginning Summer Quarter 2009, all new students who are pursuing a degree, a diploma, or a Technical Certificate of Credit with a General Education component; students who transfer credit for the General Education core; and students enrolled prior to the merger who take all or part of the General Education core after July 1, 2009, will be required to pass the General Education Competency Exams prior to graduation.
Capstone Courses
An integral part of a student's education as they move through a given program of study is the ability to transfer and apply knowledge to the workplace. As a key component of degree, diploma and select technical certificates, capstone courses have been identified which include any of the following: a specific exit exam, project, portfolio, or skills check-off, etc. measuring student knowledge. When students are able to pass the exit assessment, they demonstrate they have retained knowledge throughout their program of study which will carry over to their chosen career. Students who do not pass the exit assessment will not be able to graduate and the capstone course will need to be repeated and passed along with the exit assessment.
In instances in which a student transfers from another college (having taken a course there-which is a capstone course here) into the same program at STC, they will need to complete STC's program exit assessment. This will be a requirement before credit for the course is given. In cases in which a student transfers from another college that has a capstone course for same program, the student will need to take the exit assessment for STC's designated capstone course. Students who do not pass this assessment will not be able to graduate and the capstone course will need to be repeated and passed along with the exit assessment.
For any questions regarding STC's capstone courses, please see your program advisor.
