A high tech workforce is critical for the future success of the Illinois economy. Students learn technology by working with technology. The legacy of graduates from the College of Applied Science and Technology is that they are prepared with the latest technology enabling them to make immediate contributions in the workplaces they enter. You can support this legacy by contributing to:
Technology for Tomorrow – The College has identified teaching laboratories requiring renovation and transformation to the sophisticated learning environments needed to continue preparing a high teach workforce:
CAST in Focus – To showcase faculty expertise, selected faculty present forums designed to create an environment where faculty may showcase their work to the general public.
CAST Student Scholarship Endowment – To attract motivated, high achieving students to programs in the college, scholarship recruitment incentives must be available.
Professional Development Fund – Faculty members who are current in their disciplines and are up-to-date with industry practices are essential to maintaining the CASE missions of instruction, research, and service.
CAST Lecture Series – This endowed fund provides support for the annual keynote lecture for Science and Technology Week and other speakers.
