Growing up, students Rebecca Haywood and Riley Schaefer saw little to no representation of neurodivergent characters in children’s media.When the two took the augmented reality in children’s literature course offered through their program and Design Innovation last year, they wanted to change that for others. So, they created an interactive story where readers immerse themselves in the playground fun of two neurodivergent characters.Titled “Timber and Ricky Go to School,” the story starts when a character invites the “reader” into a classroom.

AAPI Heritage Month is also a time to educate the public on the critical issues facing these communities and to bring critical resources to underserved people who often fall through the cracks because of society’s embrace of the “model minority” stereotype, a myth that became widespread in the 1960s that touts the ...

What is the Difference Between Engineering and Engineering Technology?
The difference between engineering and engineering technology is blurred and the two often overlap. In a nutshell:
- Engineering is more theoretical typically requiring higher-level mathematics with multiple semesters of calculus and calculus-based science courses.
- Engineering technology is more hands-on and application oriented typically focusing on algebra, trigonometry, applied calculus. Technical courses are more practical in nature. If you are a practical hands-on oriented individual, engineering technology could be right for you!
Networking Opportunities
- Students have the opportunity to learn from faculty members many who are local industry specialists. This provides students not only with cutting edge practices, but also with contacts from local businesses.
- The Division of Engineering Technology has many partnerships with local industry through internships that are offered typically in a student’s sophomore year.
- Many of our current students, not to mention our alumni, have full-time positions in engineering; the collaborative nature of our program leads to a vast amount of networking opportunities.
