Technologies that will be used in the program of study will include digital fabrication tools (like 3D printing and laser cutting), software development, robotics and programmable logic controllers.

The goal of the Creative Technologies major is to provide an engaging, empowering environment where students apply technologies to projects of personal interest including projects that could be commercially viable or address unmet societal needs. In developing these projects, collaboration will be stressed.
