"During my time at OSU-Okmulgee, the Information Technologies faculty were willing to go beyond the classroom and lab to help me explore what I love: programming.

“I had a great time at OSU Okmulgee. The Information Technologies faculty showed a sincere interest in my educational development and pushed me to excel in my plan of study while adapting their instruction to incorporate the diverse knowledge and backgrounds of the students within the classes. The instructors also led by example, showing students what it means to be a professional and to apply knowledge from disciplines outside my plan of study. Most importantly, they taught me more than the skills I needed to become an IT professional; they also taught me how to learn and grow to meet any challenges I may encounter throughout my life.”

Dawn Mowdy, 2006

“I'll never forget the time and attention the Information Technologies faculty and staff gave to helping me tailor my educational to my new career goals.

The program’s hands-on approach and my paid internship with a major IT company helped me gain the competitive edge I need for a successful career.

"My experience at OSU-Okmulgee was wonderful! The faculty were very helpful. In fact, they made working with students one-on-one a major priority."

"OSU-Okmulgee provided me with the hands-on experiences that I needed to pursue a career in the IT Industry with confidence.

"Currently, I work in EDS's Information Security Department supporting servers that utilize UNIX, Linux, Solaris and VMS operating systems. However, because of the skills and knowledge I gained while at OSU-Okmulgee, I am also able to develop webpages, databases and other software programs. Since there are so many aspects to IT, I am thankful to OSU-Okmulgee's Information Technologies program for providing me with the skills I need to succeed!"
