Programs
Co-op and Internships
The co-op is a five-year school/work program designed to integrate
classroom sutdy with planned and supervised work experiences.
Technology co-op students normally are employed in manufacturing,
construction or other industry related companies in semi-professional
capacities. The employment sessions begin during the summer after
the sophomore year. The student contracts for at least three
quarters of co-op during which they enroll in TECH 380 (Professional
Practice in Technology)
Internship
All Technology-industrial track students (major or minor) are
encouraged to complete 15 hours of Internship (TECH 484) in an
industrial setting either during a summer or academic year. The
arrangements are made through the department prior to the student's
registration for the internship.
2+2 Programs
ONU has 2+2 articulation agreements with many technical and
community colleges. Transfer students may attend part-time or full-time
to complete their B.S. degree.

Technology Systems Minor (28 hours)
Students from any discipline are encouraged to use technology coursework as a corollary to their major to expand their capabilities of utilizing technology in a concentrated area of coursework. Technology Systems minors are required to take TECH 110 (Technology and Society) and 24 additional hours of courses in TECH or ITS, which are not part of a student's major program of study. Specific courses used to fulfill the requirements of the minor are to be proposed to the Technological
