Dr. Richard Boser, Chair
Welcome to the Department of Technology at Illinois State University, where we are preparing the next generation of technology leaders. I invite you to explore these pages to learn about our programs, faculty, facilities, scholarships and other useful information.
In addition to a new CAT laboratory, the Department of Technology regularly invests significant dollars to procure state-of-the-art equipment such as computer-aided design, rapid prototyping, robotics, desktop publishing, computer animation, and much more. The Department has its own networked computer system with a full-time network manager and the most recent software applications. All classes are taught in advanced technology classrooms with computer projection and Internet access.
The Department of Technology at Illinois State University is accredited by the National Association of Industrial Technology (NAIT). At the National Association of Industrial Technology Annual Conference in November 2005, the Department of Technology was awarded full re-accreditation for the next six years. Full re-accreditation represents an important quality indicator for the department and is a tribute to the vision and hard work of the faculty and staff.
The Construction Management sequence in the Department of Technology is accredited by the American Council on Construction Education (ACCE).
The Technology Education program in the Department of Technology is accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) and the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE).
