A central component of FIT's mission, and woven throughout the college's strategic plan, is a commitment to sustainability, diversity, and civility. One of the FIT Strategic Plan's critical goals is to create a purposefully diverse campus—one which, through its students, faculty, and staff—reflects the pluralistic city, nation, and world in which we live. Through the establishment of various councils, task forces, and committees, President Joyce F.

Moreover, our long, storied history is the ballast to our bright, innovative future. In the 1940s, fashion and apparel industry members faced a dwindling number of qualified people with helping them run and carry on their businesses. The next generation wanted to be doctors and lawyers—not tailors. A group of industry members, led by Mortimer C. Ritter, an educator with interest in programs for young working people, and Max Meyer, a retired menswear manufacturer, set about organizing a school to ensure their vitality businesses. First, they created the Educational Foundation for Apparel Industries to promote education for the industry. The Foundation then obtained a charter from the New York State Board of Regents to establish a "fashion institute of technology and design." The institute opened in 1944 with 100 students and was located on the High School of Needle Trades' top two floors. Today, the campus encompasses an entire city block and serves more than 10,000 students. The college offers degrees in diverse subjects, such as Menswear and Cosmetics and Fragrance Marketing, unique to the college, Fashion Business Management, Visual Presentation, and Exhibition Design, and Toy Design their kind in the country.
  4. Caltech is a world-renowned science and engineering Institute that marshals some of the world's brightest minds and most innovative tools to address fundamental scientific questions and pressing societal challenges. Caltech's extraordinary faculty and students are expanding our understanding of the universe and inventing the future technologies, with research interests from quantum science and engineering to bioinformatics and the nature of life itself, from human behavior and economics to energy and sustainability. Caltech is small but prizes excellence and ambition. Caltech's faculty and alumni's contributions have earned national and international recognition, including 38 Nobel Prizes. The Institute manages the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) for NASA, sending probes to explore the planets of our solar system and quantify changes on our home planet, owns and operates large-scale research facilities such as the Seismological Laboratory and a global network of astronomical observatories, including the Palomar and W. M. Keck Observatories and cofounded and comanages LIGO, which, in 2016, observed gravitational waves for the first time. The Institute has one of the nation's lowest student-to-faculty ratios, with 300 professorial faculty members offering a rigorous curriculum and access to varied learning opportunities and hands-on research to approximately 1,000 undergraduates 1,250 graduate students. Caltech is an independent, privately supported institution with a 124-acre campus located in Pasadena, California. The mission of the California Institute of Technology is to expand human knowledge and benefit society through research integrated with education. We investigate the most challenging, fundamental problems in science and technology in a singularly collegial, interdisciplinary atmosphere while educating outstanding students to become creative members of society. Founded as Throop University in 1891 in Pasadena, California, and renamed the California Institute of Technology in 1920. Throughout its history, the California Institute of Technology has ventured into unexplored realms, defining new fields in science and engineering, and pushing interdisciplinary boundaries in the service of discovery. Caltech's commitment to the absolute excellence of its faculty, students, and staff—building a great university one outstanding individual at a time—has created an international presence that magnifies the Institute's size. Fearlessness in attacking large and essential problems at scale, from the nature of the chemical bond to quarks and quasars to the brain's structure, marks the cultural capital that aligns and knits together Caltech's intellectual community. We remain committed to setting the example of what the intertwined missions of research and education can accomplish. Caltech arose from the vision of George Ellery Hale, Robert A. Millikan, and Arthur A. Noyes, who almost 100 years ago conceived of a gathering of individuals dedicated to "vitalizing all the work of the Institute by the infusion in a generous measure of the spirit of research." Today, the Institute comprises approximately 300 faculty members, 950 undergraduates from 46 states and 26 countries, 1,250 graduate students, 600 research scholars, and 4,000 staff members. Institute researchers founded the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in 1936, and Caltech continues to manage JPL for NASA. JPL's 5,000 employees are tightly connected to the campus research mission and permit the Institute to push space and earth science frontiers. Caltech's unflinching commitment to scientific leadership is notably expressed in the fabrication and operation of instrumentation that reveals nature in unexpected dimensions, whether through the world's largest and most productive telescopes, a seismological network of unprecedented scale, or the development of implantable medical devices to improve human well-being. Caltech receives more invention disclosures per faculty member than any other university in the United States. Caltech undergraduates enroll in core courses in physics, humanities, social sciences, math, chemistry, and biology, while a broad array of academic programs provide an opportunity for tailored educational experiences. Caltech students are eligible to apply for study abroad programs during their sophomore or junior years to study abroad during their junior or senior years. Students receive a minimum of 36 units, provided that they pass their coursework, and it is possible to get additional units. Students can receive general credit or option credit. Students can also get humanities or social science credit in most programs. Courses taken abroad can fulfill specific option requirements—actually replace a course taken here—as long as the instructor agrees to evaluate the student's return. Each fall, we hold Study Abroad information meetings to explain the application process and program options, and have students who have participated in study abroad speak to share their experiences. Announcements for the meetings are sent via the Caltech email directory. In the FASA library, you will find sample proposals, surveys on the academic and social experience at each program completed by former participants, and other resources about each program. Graduate students collaborate with the top researchers to push past technological barriers and increase understanding of the world. Caltech provides one of the nation's best values in higher education, thanks to robust need-based financial aid and scholarship awards available to students throughout their study. All undergraduate financial aid is awarded based on need. Annually, nearly 60 percent of undergraduates receive aid under Caltech's policy to provide all U.S. citizens and permanent residents with the support required to meet 100 percent of their families' demonstrated need. Approximately 98 percent of graduate and 99 percent of doctoral students receive full financial support. Aid is awarded annually in the form of fellowships and assistantships.
  5. MIT's mission is to advance knowledge and educate students in science, technology, and other areas of scholarship that will best serve the nation and the world in the twenty-first century. We seek to develop in each member of the MIT community the ability and passion for working wisely, creatively, and virtually for humankind's betterment. Since its incorporation in 1861, MIT has created a place for students, faculty members, researchers, and scientists to advance our understanding of the world through world-class scholarship and leadership that continue to serve the nation and the world. Since its incorporation in 1861, MIT has upheld its abiding commitment to advance knowledge and educate students in science, technology, and related areas of scholarship. Teaching and research—with relevance to the practical world as a guiding principle—continue to be the Institute's primary purpose as it serves the nation and the world. MIT maintains a commitment to serving both the local community and the world through education and technology. From the broad range of community services that draw support from students, faculty, and staff, to the far-reaching educational activities of OpenCourseWare, MITx, and edX, MIT continues to make the wonders of technology discovery relevant to people near and far. The soul of MIT is research. For more than 150 years, the Institute has brought together teaching, engineering, and scientific studies to produce a series of advancements. Many of these advancements are world-changing and occupy all corners of science and technology, from advanced engineering to the study of genetics and the arts. MIT has created a culture of inclusion that supports and learns from the diverse skills and perspectives in its community. The Institute supports student growth by providing opportunities to bond, expand, and grow and step outside a given worldview to appreciate diverse life experiences. Engagement in those perspectives leads to a greater understanding of the world and our place in it. A new program called The Standard is working to advance the academic, personal, and professional success of men of color at MIT. Students join in their first year and are paired with upper-level students who serve as peer mentors. Also, members attend outings, guest lectures, and workshops on various topics, including professional development, life skills, self-care, and financial literacy. In Designing the First Year at MIT, a new class offered this spring; students were tasked with solving the ultimate problem set: making the first year at MIT better. Working in teams, students tackled pain points they identified in academics, activities, and advising and proposed innovative ways to improve those areas. Several ideas from the class are already being considered for implementation. MIT has a long-standing commitment to diversity and inclusion, such as its dedicated efforts to support, mentor, and recruit the leaders of tomorrow. Through the Institute Community and Equity Office (ICEO), MIT has championed efforts to enhance the student experience. The mission of the ICEO is to advance a respectful and caring community that embraces diversity and empowers everyone to learn and do their best at MIT. In this mission's spirit, the Office of Graduate Education (OGE) has taken a proactive lead in creating and fostering diversity initiative programs. Through our recruiting efforts, the OGE can reach out and engage with prospective graduate students from across the United States, which then allows us to highlight all that MIT has to offer. We have also crafted dedicated summer research programs and open house visits to bring talented individuals to the MIT campus. The MSRP mission seeks to promote the value of graduate education, to improve the research enterprise through increased diversity, and to prepare and recruit the best and brightest students for graduate education at MIT. This nine-week, fully funded summer program brings together a talented pool of underrepresented minorities and underserved students to engage in on-campus research led by dedicated MIT faculty members, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate students. It is an invaluable experience for any student considering further graduate education. The CONVERGE preview weekend provides an opportunity for prospective applicants to learn about the graduate admissions process and to hear about many of the programs MIT has to offer. The preview weekend is targeted toward underrepresented minorities interested in pursuing a doctoral degree in the future. Graduate students at MIT are entering a tight housing market, looking for accommodations on campus or in the surrounding Boston-Cambridge area. Many new students, single and married, find apartments off-campus, both nearby and in the outer suburbs, where there are greater variety and availability. MIT is committed to working with students to create a healthy and vibrant campus community. One aspect of this is confronting the critical topics of sexual assault, harassment, and relationship violence. As a part of this ongoing effort, MIT has partnered with EverFi to offer Haven Plus: an online, research-based program that provides a learning experience regarding critical prevention skills and strategies.
  6. The Air Force Institute of Technology, or AFIT, is the Air Force's graduate school of engineering, management, and institution for technical professional continuing education. A component of Air University and Air Education and Training Command, AFIT is committed to providing defense-focused graduate and professional continuing education and research to sustain the technological supremacy of America's air, space, and cyber forces. AFIT accomplishes this mission through four schools: the Graduate School of Engineering and Management, the School of Systems and Logistics, the Civil Engineer School, and the School of Strategic Force Studies. Through its Civilian Institution Programs, AFIT also manages the educational programs of officers enrolled in civilian universities, research centers, hospitals, and industrial organizations. Since graduate degrees were first granted in 1955, more than 18,760 master's and 795 doctors of philosophy degrees have been awarded. Air Force students attending civilian institutions have earned more than 12,000 undergraduate and graduate degrees in the past twenty years. Provide Airmen with world-class defense-focused and research-enabled advanced academic education, and career-long professional continuing education on-command and on-demand. Through four schools and a non-resident civilian institution program, delivers: graduate education to the Medical, Line, Legal and Chaplain Corps professional continuing education to Civil Engineers, Space, Nuclear, Acquisition, and Logistics professionals cutting-edge research in many areas, including cyber, directed energy, hypersonics, stealth, navigation and space and consultation and analysis support services. Our vision is to be the internationally recognized leader for defense-focused technical graduate and continuing education, research, and consultation. On 10 November 1919, Colonel Thurman Bane received authorization to begin instruction at the Air School of Application. The following year, the first class of nine students graduated from the newly named Air Services Engineering School. Ninety-eight years later, the Air Force Institute of Technology has awarded over 21,300 degrees, and more than 400,000 people have gone through our continuing education courses. What started as a school for select officers has grown into a premier educational institution for both officer and enlisted students, international students, Department of Defense civilians, and members of all branches of the armed services. However, some things never change. We continue to stress excellence in education and research to move AFIT through the twenty-first century, retaining its flexibility and resourcefulness in accomplishing its mission just as it had done since its inception 95 years ago. AFIT's research programs complement our graduate education programs, allowing students to develop an enhanced understanding of their disciplines' fundamental principles and an appreciation of the most pressing unanswered questions. Consistent with the AFIT mission, our primary and applied research projects primarily focus on problems related to current or anticipated Air Force and Department of Defense needs. Our research accomplishments are highlighted on each department's webpage and in the AFIT Graduate School of Engineering and Management Annual Report. Comprehensive listings of our publications, external funding, and faculty credentials appear in the school's Research Report. The Center for Cyberspace Research, established in March 2002, conducts cybersecurity and cyber operations research at the Master's and Ph. D. levels. CCR affiliated faculty teach and direct graduate research focusing on understanding and developing advanced cyber-related theories and technologies, such as critical infrastructure protection, cyber-physical systems, network intrusion detection and avoidance, insider threat mitigation, cyberspace situational awareness, malicious software detection and analysis, software protection, and anti-tamper technologies. CCR is forward-looking and responsive to the Air Force's changing educational and research needs, the Department of Defense, and the federal government. CCR faculty's research and teaching establish AFIT as a National Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Research, designated by the Department of Homeland Security and the National Security Agency (NSA). In addition to its regional accreditation, the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET accredits the following master's degree programs in the Graduate School of Engineering and Management: Aeronautical Engineering, Astronautical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Nuclear Engineering, Environmental Engineering and Science, Engineering Management, and Systems Engineering. Also, the Industrial Hygiene master's degree program is accredited by the Applied and Natural Science Accreditation Commission of ABET. The AFIT Foundation initiated, commissioned, and funded, through contributions, the memorial to graduates of the Air Force Institute of Technology from the US Air Force and US Army Air Corps. They lost their lives while in service to our country. Upon completion, the monument was offered as a gift to the Department of the Air Force and, under the provisions of Title 10, United States Code, Section 2601, accepted. While initially planned for the circle at the center of the AFIT complex, the Foundation board determined that having the statue installed in the atrium of the National Museum of the Air Force at Wright-Patterson would be appropriate, and would enable the statue to be viewed by more significant numbers. In 2010, the Icarus statue was moved from the National Museum of the Air Force to its originally intended location in front of the AFIT complex. A rededication ceremony was held on 21 September 2010, with Mr. Eleftherios Karkadoulias, who designed and crafted the Icarus statue.
  7. Illinois Institute of Technology is a private, technology-focused research university offering undergraduate and graduate degrees in engineering, science, architecture, business, design, human sciences, applied technology, and law. One of 21 institutions that comprise the Association of Independent Technological Universities (AITU), Illinois Tech, offers exceptional preparation for professions that require technological sophistication, an innovative mindset, and an entrepreneurial spirit. Undergraduates study in six of IIT's eight academic divisions. Students are encouraged—and even required—to take courses from across the various programs to complete their degrees. If you do not have a planned area of study before entering, you can choose an Undecided path among Armour College of Engineering, College of Science, or General Undecided. IIT's eight colleges offer study options that give you maximum flexibility to achieve your goals. IIT offers traditional master's and doctoral programs (thesis required), professional master's programs (no thesis required), dozens of certificate specializations, dual-degree plans, and short-term executive and professional packages. Some or all of your graduate study may be completed online. Illinois Institute of Technology is a community that values and respects its members. We appreciate that our faculty, staff, students, alumni/ae, and trustees come from many backgrounds and parts of the world. We embrace the contributions that differences offer. We are committed to providing a working and learning environment where all students and all faculty members and staff can realize their full potential. We strive to have a diverse culture of unity, inclusivity, equity, and respect at this university. I expect everyone in our community to treat one another with respect and dignity regardless of gender, race, background, country of origin, religious affiliation, immigration status, orientation, or any other such descriptor. As a community, we must be clear that it is intolerable to allow anyone to be bullied or demeaned or shamed because of their ideas, decisions, background, characteristics, or particular circumstances. To expand upon the commitment to diversity in its Statement on Community, Inclusion, and Diversity, Illinois Tech's Community, Inclusion and Diversity Committee has adopted a document entitled Building Community and Fostering Diversity. This document establishes a set of ten principles aimed at building and maintaining a civil, respectful, and inclusive Illinois Tech community. Illinois Tech offers countless research opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students—from on-campus work in professors' labs to national and internationally funded research programs. Students at Illinois Tech can take advantage of our small, private university and find unparalleled access to challenging, thought-provoking research opportunities. Our focus on technology means you will be supplementing your education with research experiences in fields where significant innovation is taking place—and in areas with profound societal implications. To explore the current research opportunities for students at Illinois Tech or assistance with a project proposal, contact your college or school, your faculty advisor, or a faculty member whose research interests you. In spring 2008, an exciting new chapter of IIT history was launched as the Board of Trustees enthusiastically endorsed plans for a university-wide planning process to reestablish the university as a significant force in higher education. That plan, Many Voices, One Vision: 2010-2014, helped focus the institution's initiatives and strengthen its infrastructure—and it is now time to move the university forward into a new era of accomplishment and excellence... In 1890, when advanced education was often reserved for society's elite, Chicago minister Frank Wakely Gunsaulus delivered what came to be known as the "Million Dollar Sermon." From the pulpit of his South Side church, near the site Illinois Institute of Technology now occupies, Gunsaulus said that with a million dollars, he could build a school where students of all backgrounds could prepare for meaningful roles in a changing industrial society. Inspired by Gunsaulus' vision, Philip Danforth Armour, Sr. (1832-1901) gave $1 million to found the Armour Institute—and Armour, his wife, Malvina Belle Ogden Armour (1842-1927), and their son J. (Jonathan) Ogden Armour (1863-1927) continued to support the university in its early years. When Armour Institute opened in 1893, it offered professional courses in engineering, chemistry, architecture, and library science. Illinois Tech was created in 1940 by the merger of Armour Institute and Lewis Institute. Located on the west side of Chicago, Lewis Institute, established in 1895 by the estate of hardware merchant and investor Allen C. Lewis, offered liberal arts and science and engineering courses for both men and women. At separate meetings held by their respective boards on October 26, 1939, Armour and Lewis's trustees voted to merge the two colleges. A Cook County circuit court decision on April 23, 1940, solidified the merger. Some of the most famous buildings in the world, designed by legendary architects, are located on the IIT Main Campus in Chicago. S. R. Crown Hall, an elegant steel-and-glass National Historic Landmark, is a marvel of engineering and simplicity by former IIT professor and Architecture dean Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. Elevated trains run through the Rem Koolhaas-designed McCormick Tribune Campus Center. And IIT alumnus Helmut Jahn's State Street Village is one of the on-campus places to live. The Ed Kaplan Family Institute for Innovation and Tech Entrepreneurship will be added to Morton Park on Illinois Tech's Main Campus. The Kaplan Institute will house the university's internationally-renowned Institute of Design activities as well as IPRO, Entrepreneurship Academy, Leadership Academy, Jules Knapp Entrepreneurship Center, and Idea Shop.

Colonel Nathaniel Rochester and other Rochester community leaders founded the Athenaeum, an association "to cultivate and promote literature, science, and the arts." The Athenaeum was located in the Reynolds Arcade and housed a meeting room and a small reading room with a library, provided by Abelard Reynolds. The Rochester Athenaeum grew into a famous cultural center for Rochesterians. It offered public lectures and debates and began establishing a substantial library. The Athenaeum merged with the Mechanics Literary Association, founded in 1836 by William A. Reynolds (son of Abelard Reynolds), to form the Rochester Athenaeum and Mechanics Association. It continued the tradition of public lectures, book reviews, and debates. The two groups merged their literary collections to create a singular library of more than 8,000 volumes covering various subjects. Lectures were held at Corinthian Hall, which could hold 1,100, and distinguished speakers included Charles Dickens, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Oliver Wendell Holmes, and Frederick Douglass. Mechanics Institute is founded. Captain Henry Lomb, Max Lowenthal, Ezra Andrews, Frank Ritter, William Peck, and other Rochester business people and influential citizens established a school to provide needed technical training for skilled workers in the industry. Lomb was the first president of the Board of Trustees and guided the institute's direction until he died in 1908. Eugene Colby was appointed first teacher and principal of the Mechanics Institute. Rochester's citizens donated all funds for running the school, and instruction was free for the first year. The first class offered at the newly formed Mechanics Institute was mechanical drawing, held in the evening on November 23, 1885. The community response is overwhelming. More than 400 students enrolled in the institute.

As a result, SUNY Poly has emerged as the most dynamic and unique institution in the State University System with more than 7,000 scientists, researchers, engineers, students, faculty, and staff. SUNY Poly - A New Paradigm SUNY Poly represents a new and necessary paradigm for public and affordable higher education in science, engineering, and technology, one that is cognizant and respectful of the typical academic enterprise while fostering and enabling the fast-evolving culture of discovery and innovation in today's knowledge-driven global economy. The history of SUNY Poly's Utica site dates back to 1966 when Upper Division College at Herkimer/Rome/Utica was founded and began offering graduate programs to students using classrooms at a local elementary school. In 1971, the college began operating in a former mill building in West Utica, which was gradually remodeled into classrooms, offices, and a library. With growing enrollment, the institution leased three additional buildings in West Utica and one in Rome. It adopted a new name in 1977: the State University of New York College of Technology at Utica-Rome. In 1981, construction began on a new campus in Marcy. The first building, Kunsela Hall, was completed in 1984, and the college operated two campuses during a transitional period. In the 1987 fall semester, entering students attended all classes at the new campus. In 1989, the college name was changed again to the "State University of New York Institute of Technology at Utica-Rome." Steady growth and construction have continued over the years, including a $13 million student center, a $20 million fieldhouse and athletic fields, and a $23.5 million residence hall, all completed in 2011. SUNY Poly is a member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division III, the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference (ECAC), and the North Eastern Athletic Conference (NEAC). The current roster of SUNY Poly varsity sports includes baseball, softball, men's and women's basketball, cross country, lacrosse, soccer, and volleyball. SUNY Poly's athletic nickname is the Wildcats. SUNY Poly manages the $500 million New York Power Electronics Manufacturing Consortium in partnership with General Electric to develop and deploy advanced power electronics technologies, with nodes in Albany and Rochester. SUNY Poly also leads the American Institute for Manufacturing Integrated Photonics (AIM Photonics), an industry-driven public-private partnership that focuses the nation's premiere capabilities and expertise to capture critical global manufacturing leadership in a technology that is both essential to National security and positioned to provide a compelling return-on-investment to the U.S. economy. With access to world-class facilities and innovative career preparation, SUNY Poly offers unique and expanded opportunities for all its students at its Utica and Albany locations. The same commitment to cutting-edge academic and research programs that distinguished both institutions in the past makes SUNY Poly a unique, high-tech global leader in public higher education.

From the world-famous “Ramblin’ Wreck” fight song to the fun and festivities of RATS Week, the Tech campus is steeped in time-honored traditions that students embrace from generation to generation. The words and music for Tech’s world-famous “Ramblin’ Wreck” fight song were inspired by an old folk ballad, “The Sons of the Gamboliers.” The name Ramblin’ Wreck gained widespread acceptance in the 1920s, when Tech graduates began building makeshift mechanical buggies to improve a poor transportation system in South America. The 1930 Model A Ford was donated to Georgia Tech in 1961 by Capt. Ted Johnson, a then-retired pilot who had purchased and restored the car for his son. The official Ramblin’ Wreck appears on the field at all home football games and other events as a symbol of Georgia Tech. A second Model A was purchased and restored by the Alumni Association in the 1980s, and is used at alumni events. A third automobile was purchased and restored by the Georgia Tech Foundation, and is parked in the lobby of the Georgia Tech Hotel. RATS (Recently Acquired Tech Students) Week is Tech’s orientation week for new students, when first-year students learn all about Tech campus traditions.Believed to have come to Tech in 1896, the steam whistle was meant to mimic the industrial whistles of the times. It called the students to their shop classes. Today, it is operated by a computerized atomic clock that releases the steam. The Whistle blows five minutes to the hour to end classes on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. It has a different schedule on Tuesdays and Thursdays. It also blows after Tech touchdowns during home games.

  14. Iowa State University is a public, land-grant university. Students get a great academic start in learning communities and stay active in 800-plus student organizations, undergrad research, internships, and study abroad. They learn from world-class scholars who are tackling some of the world's biggest challenges -- feeding the hungry, finding alternative fuels, and advancing manufacturing. Our mission is "Create, share and apply knowledge to make Iowa and the world a better place." Students play significant roles in Iowa State's research mission. They work alongside top-notch faculty and staff who are exploring new ideas and find solutions to real problems. They are part of the team, gaining firsthand experience with equipment and laboratory procedures. Often, they connect with other students who have adventurous minds and become part of a student-led project. Getting involved in a research activity complements your coursework and adds another dimension to your Iowa State experience. The opportunities are as rich as your imagination. Research opportunities for students can be found across the university, in laboratories and libraries, in the field or at a computer, and in disciplines representing the breadth of ISU's mission. Getting involved in research offers you a valuable opportunity to gain skills, learn more about a field of study, and make a difference in today's world. There are over 850 student organizations at Iowa State, and that number continues to grow. Search the database for a club that fits your interests and goals. The SAC is here to help you manage your student organization, no matter what your needs are! We can assist you in promoting your club, reserving space, training officers, and more. Iowa State University Career Services is a coordinated network of career services offices offering a broad range of programs and services for undergraduate and graduate students, alumni, and employers. The Academic Success Center provides opportunities for students to develop skills that promote success, practice leadership, and become self-directed learners through the delivery of centralized, high-quality academic support services that are responsive to the campus community's needs. The Student Accessibility Services office (SAS), formerly Student Disability Resources (SDR), at Iowa State University, is a unit in the Dean of Students Office that supports students with disabilities to coordinate support services and programs that enable access to education and university life. SAS believes that equity, social justice, and diversity are essential to creating/maintaining an environment of equal access and opportunity for all. We believe that disability is a naturally occurring aspect of the diversity of life and that it is an integral part of society and to the Iowa State University campus community. The mission of the Student Counseling Service (SCS) is to promote the positive development and mental health of ISU students and to deal with student crises effectively. We support student retention by helping students realize their potential and empowering them to clarify and strive toward their personal and academic goals. SCS is dedicated to providing comprehensive and useful services, including counseling in individual, couples, and group modes career exploration consultation, educational presentations or workshops, testing, and crisis intervention. Our services focus holistically on students' emotional, cognitive, behavioral, physical, and spiritual components as we encourage self-determined development and change. SCS provides services from both preventive and remedial perspectives. We provide direct services to enrolled students and consult faculty, staff, and administrators who work with students and family members and other professionals involved with students. The staff is sensitive to the influence of socio-cultural factors and individual differences and strives to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse population at Iowa State University. The International Association of Counseling Centers accredits SCS. Iowa Agricultural College and Model Farm (now Iowa State University) was officially established on March 22, 1858, by the legislature of the State of Iowa. Story County was selected as a site on June 21, 1859, and the original farm of 648 acres was purchased for a cost of $5,379. The Farm House, the first building on the Iowa State campus, was completed in 1861. In 1862, the Iowa legislature voted to accept the provision of the Morrill Act, which was awarded to the agricultural college in 1864. Iowa Agricultural College (Iowa State College of Agricultural and Mechanic Arts as of 1898), as a land grant institution, focused on the ideals that higher education should be accessible to all and that the university should teach liberal and practical subjects. These ideals are integral to the land-grant university. The first official class entered Ames in 1869, and the first-class (24 men and two women) graduated in 1872. Iowa State was and is a leader in agriculture, engineering, extension, home economics, and created the nation's first state veterinary medicine school in 1879. In 1959, the college was officially renamed Iowa State University of Science and Technology. The focus on technology has led directly to many research patents and inventions, including the first binary computer (the ABC), Maytag blue cheese, the round hay baler, and many more. Beginning with a small number of students and Old Main, Iowa State University now has approximately 27,000 students and over 100 buildings with world-class programs in agriculture, technology, science, and art. Iowa State University is an extraordinary place, full of history. But what truly makes it unique is a rare combination of campus beauty, the opportunity to be a part of the land-grant experiment, and to create a progressive and inventive spirit that we call the Cyclone experience. Appreciate what we have here, for it is indeed one of a kind.

At Indiana Tech, you will feel like this is your second home. Affording a college education does not have to be out-of-reach. There are several ways to make an Indiana Tech education affordable. There are dozens of scholarships available to help you pay for college. If you are an international student, you can learn more about our International Scholarship. Private scholarships are also available, with new ones becoming available often. Indiana Tech values community leaders and would like to recognize students who exhibit leadership potential while demonstrating the university's core values. The Presidential Scholarship will recognize students for their achievements and encourage them to grow their leadership abilities. This is a full-tuition scholarship. It is renewable for up to a total of eight semesters to help you achieve your first baccalaureate degree. Ideal candidates will show concrete examples of how they have led within their communities. Candidates should have an attitude of continuous improvement and seek to improve their leadership abilities while helping others. To encourage this, the university will require this scholarship to complete annual leadership projects within the campus or local community. In selecting recipients of the Presidential Scholarship, preference may be given to candidates who have established contributions within the Fort Wayne community, especially within the East Central neighborhood. Indiana Tech is offering a new scholarship opportunity that expands the reach of its Northeast Indiana Regional Scholarship, which was implemented late in 2015. Along with the new Indiana Tech Regional Scholarship, it is for day students (students taking traditional semester-long courses on campus in Fort Wayne.) Regardless of your background, rest assured Indiana Tech fosters a diverse, friendly, and safe learning environment committed to your development. The Career Center provides several resources to our students to prepare for and land their ideal job. Each Indiana Tech student is assigned a faculty advisor to help with choices about curriculum and coursework. The advisors are full-time faculty members and are specially equipped to discuss various academic issues. Advisors are selected based on the specific academic needs of your area of study. Once your advisor is assigned, you will receive his or her phone number and email address so that you can contact him or her at your convenience.

As members become more involved in their organizations, they will have the opportunity to grow into leadership positions and begin meeting other organizational leaders across campus to find unique ways their organizations can help each other grow. Andorfer Commons is an integral meeting place for campus life. From the 210-seat movie theater to the decked-out Recreation Center, there are many places to meet with friends and faculty or staff.

  20. Capitol Technology University was founded in Washington, DC, as the Capitol Radio Engineering Institute in 1927 by Eugene H. Rietzke. A Navy veteran and radio operator, Rietzke foresaw the need for an advanced school that could produce talented radio and electronics technicians. CREI began as a correspondence school, but its popularity led to the 1932 opening of a residence division allowing students to work for hands-on in laboratories. As radio technology improved, new training programs and courses were quickly added. Following World War II, CREI became one of the first three technical institutes accredited by the Engineers' Council for Professional Development. The institute entered a new era in the mid-1950s when it began awarding three-year AAS degrees. The school expanded its reach to new programs in applied engineering and electronics. To reflect this evolution, the institute changed its name to the Capital Institute of Technology in 1964. It awarded its first bachelor of science degrees in 1966 to four graduates of its electronics engineering technology program. Anticipating the need for more room, Capitol relocated in 1969 to a leased space in Kensington, Maryland. In 2010, Capitol launched its first doctoral program in college's history. The doctorate in information assurance was designed to prepare students for leadership roles in the burgeoning field of cybersecurity. Offered almost exclusively online, much like Capitol's master's degrees, Capitol has accepted doctoral students from across the globe. The university added its second doctoral program, in management and decision sciences, in 2014. Capitol currently offers three associate degrees, 12 bachelor's degrees, six master's degrees, and two doctorates. Capitol currently offers five doctoral programs, including a combination master of science and a Ph.D. program. These programs support the development of high-level critical thinking, leadership, and technical skills, and contribute innovative and practical doctoral research to student's chosen body of knowledge. Choose from eight master's degree programs to expand your knowledge and advance in your career. Programs are accelerated, with eight-week as well as 16-week courses, offered exclusively online. The courses combine the convenience of online learning with the stimulation of classroom experience. Capitol is the only independent college in Maryland dedicated to engineering, computer science, information technology, and business. These are four-year programs leading to a college diploma and a promising job in a high-technology field or business. We offer three associate degrees that can be completed in two years. You can enter the workforce with this degree or continue your education by applying the credits to a bachelor's degree. Choose the program that matches your interests. We offer more than 20 certificates, each approximately 12-credits per certificate. Earning one of these certificates can help you keep your skills current, advance your career, or change your workplace role.

Its factories churned out thread, metals, paints, and leather goods. In Newark, Thomas Edison set the www at his Ward Street factory for his later astounding achievements, and Edison rival Edward Weston established the first factory in the United States for commercial production of dynamo-electric machines. On March 24, 1880, the Essex County Assemblyman in the state Legislature introduced "An Act to Provide for the Establishment of Schools of Industrial Education." The Newark Board of Trade sponsored the bill. The Act established three schools of industrial education: one in Newark, one in Trenton, and one in Hoboken. The first Board of Trustees met July 1, 1884. The Newark Technical School opened Monday, February 9, 1885, with 88 students who attended despite a terrible snowstorm.
