WHY APPLIED TECHNOLOGY AT SOUTHERN?
The Applied Technology program at Southern provides experience in technical disciplines to prepare you for in-demand careers.
Students balance a liberal arts education with hands-on experience in the areas of woods, metals, printing, auto service, and construction.
Practical applications complement coursework, which is designed to develop both field skills and entrepreneurial skills.
Mission trips specifically designed for these majors provide valuable life lessons about the role of technology in advancing God's kingdom.
The bachelor's in both automotive service and construction also focus on management skills, with students taking a handful of courses in business management.
Auto service students work in a fully equipped shop that includes cutting-edge equipment.
Beyond the Classroom
Academic programs are complemented with practical learning experiences in the community and beyond.
Real Hands-On Experience
Students participate in real word experiences and projects. Construction management majors have the opportunity to participate in all phases of construction to complete a home or apartment during the first year of coursework while learning from industry professionals. Automotive students get to experience working on real customer vehicles in our fully equipped shop, that includes cutting edge equipment.
