A New Kind of Two-Year College
For a New World of Careers
The world is changing rapidly. NDSCS isn’t just changing with it; we’re out ahead, giving our students a lead-in to high-paying, rewarding and challenging careers.
Today’s companies are competing in a fast-paced, highly technical and sophisticated global economy, and they need a new kind of employee to succeed. They’re looking for people who can work with their heads as well as their hands, who can adapt and create solutions that improve efficiency and productivity. They call them “knowledge workers,” and educating them – educating you – is our specialty.
NDSCS is “old school” and “new school” at the same time. For more than a century, we’ve been educating people for successful lives through hands-on, student-centered programs. And we also have the most advanced technologies, equipment and learning environments around. We’re a leader in forming partnerships with employers in agriculture, business, construction, health care, manufacturing, transportation and other fields where there is a strong demand for knowledge workers. These companies help NDSCS keep pace with or get ahead of the real world. At the same time, they expand opportunities for students in terms of expert instruction, cooperative education and networking.
With an NDSCS education, you’ll move into your career or the next step in your educational journey faster and for less money. The fact is, it doesn’t matter how quick or cheap you get there, it’s how good you are when you arrive. Our graduates arrive prepared to jump right in and make a difference. If you doubt it, all you have to do is ask the companies that employ them.
I’ve been involved with NDSCS as a coach, instructor, administrator and parent of two children who are now alumni. Things have changed since I first stepped on campus back in the early 1970s, but one thing hasn’t and never will. At NDSCS students come first, and we’ll do everything in our power to help you succeed.
So check out NDSCS, a two-year college that has launched thousands of successful careers and lives. We can do the same for you.
