COTC’s engineering technology program help students gain the necessary high-tech career skills to join the workforce of tomorrow — for both established and new industries. With input from existing local employers, these degrees and certificates are designed to give students a well-rounded base of education that will allow them to move into any type of high performance manufacturing at the technician level.

And due to Intel’s announcement that they will invest $20 billion in two semiconductor manufacturing facilities in Licking County, creating 3,000 permanent jobs, the region’s high-tech industrialization will continue to accelerate rapidly. Intel plans to hire 70% of its Ohio workforce at the associate degree level. While earning an associate degree does not guarantee employment, COTC’s electrical engineering technology degree positions individuals extremely well for roles at Intel and many other manufacturing firms.
