Technology, Engineering Technology, Health Science, Industrial
Management and Technology, and Social and Legal Services.
Participants can also learn more about Edison State’s 2+2 University
Transfer Degrees, which allows students to complete the first two years
of a bachelor’s degree at Edison State before transferring to their
university of choice.
Industry leaders will also be in attendance to speak one-on-one with
students and parents about the need for skilled workers in the Miami
Valley.
