College of Technology
The College of Technology (COT) provides career pathways for students to earn certificates, Associate of Science and Bachelor of Science degrees in Engineering and Technology disciplines. COT reduces barriers to education by providing a seamless articulation between CT State and the four-year partner universities and offering multiple points of entry for completion of degrees.
Programs
The two main transfer programs are Engineering Science, which transfers into many different four-year Engineering Bachelor's degrees and Technology Studies.
History
The COT was established in 1992 under Connecticut Public Act 92-126 to form articulation agreements between all twelve Connecticut community colleges and public and private partner universities. This unique infrastructure and governance provide seamless articulation between the community colleges and their four-year partner universities, providing multiple points of entry for degree completion. For over 30 years, the COT has provided leadership for transfer pathways and has been recognized as a model transfer program.
Leadership Structure
The COT is led by a State Director and a Site Coordinator's Council, which meets monthly, includes representatives from 4-year public and private university partners, all campuses of CT State Community College, as well as the Connecticut Technical High School System, and business and industry partners.
Pathways
Start at CT State → Finish at a 4-year institution.
The credits from College of Technology degrees may be transferable to various four-year programs. Choose a degree and then a transfer school to learn more.
