Growing a photonics program in good times and bad

Judith Donnelly and Randall Seebeck

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

Three Rivers Community College began an associate degree program in Photonics Engineering Technology in 1998 when telecommunications was booming. Five years later the program continues to grow. Support from industry and from the National Science Foundation have been key to keeping the program moving forward. Creating a pipeline of entering students remains a challenge.
