All technical courses in Fire Science are held at the John T. Dempster Sr. Fire Service Training Center, located at 350 Lawrence Station Road in Lawrenceville Township. The center also has its own library containing the fire service holdings of the college, as well as general emergency service publications and reference materials. Current proposals call for a computer link to the college library and on-line information services. A large, well-lighted classroom with tables doubles as a restorative art lab.
Students supplement their experience with a supervised off-campus internship.
Appropriate periodicals are kept in the program office for immediate access to students and faculty in addition to those periodicals available in the library. However, the majority of the program's activities are conducted in a complex of three greenhouses and a classroom where students practice interior and exterior landscapting, floral design, plant propagation, greenhouse management, and pest control. In addition to a large rhododendron garden, the college's 292 acares contain an extensive collection of both woody and herbaceous plants. These resources provide additional opportunities for field work in plant identification, plant managemen, and pest control. A pleasant dining room adjoins the lab where students serve meals they have prepared.
