Huron teaching graduates are different. Our students graduate with the same degree, plus a certificate of competence in computer science. They are fluent and up to speed with all the latest technology, which they then take into the school system. They feel comfortable with the technology and are able to put that on their resume. As a result of that we have 100 percent placement of our teacher graduates.
Technology is embedded throughout the curriculum.
Chancellor O'Donnell explains how the English program has been transformed to meet the demands of today's technology-driven market. In the old days, you'd do a project where you'd stand up and do a presentation with maybe some transparencies, some pictures. Here, you convert your project to computer on the PowerPoint program and there's multimedia equipment in the classrooms to do your presentation. Technology is pervasive in every industry, and is becoming even more so. By incorporating it in all our degrees, our students across the board have technology competence, so when they graduate, they can hit the ground running.
