Business technology: TECHNICAL STUDIES
The Associate of Applied Science degree in Technical Studies: Modeling and Simulation is a hands-on, skill-based curriculum which prepares the student for employment as a technician/analyst in the field.
Modeling and simulation is one of the region’s fastest growing industries. Applications run the spectrum from military simulations, homeland security and medical to serious gaming and transportation. Jobs require problem-solving and technical skills as well as the ability to work independently and with other experts.
Cooperative education experiences help students explore the job market before graduation and gain further skill and understanding of the field.
