Geneva College Center For Technology Development
The Center for Technology Development (GCCTD) at Geneva College provides a mechanism whereby the engineering and other technical resources at the College are made available to organizations who do not have the personnel or resources to investigate promising new ideas in technology related areas. The primary focus of this program is to provide engineering or technical support for small organizations, companies, or entrepreneurs in this geographical region. This is accomplished through the collaborative efforts of our science and engineering students and their instructors in a project based learning environment.
In Keystone Innovation Zone activities the objectives are somewhat broader as multiple partners are often involved in a single project. These include:
- Work in partnership with CO-OP and other KIZ partners to identify class projects and internship needs to KIZ companies seeking engineering and technical support through the KIZ Internship Support Program Internships and class projects will be based on a specific need or skill requirement.
- Faculty and students will coordinate and provide direct engineering technical assistance in the analysis, evaluation, and development of existing and new pre-owned medical equipment and technologies.
- Work in partnership with CO-OP and other KIZ partners to develop proto-type technologies and services through Geneva College’s Center for Technology Development.
- Work in partnership with CO-OP and other KIZ partners to identify additional needs and capacity within Geneva College’s various departments such as Chemistry, Biology, and Business and Marketing to support KIZ activities/needs.
