Advisory regarding Southern California wildfires

On behalf of everyone at Thomas Edison State University, we hope that students affected by the wildfires in Southern California remain safe. The University is offering accommodations to students affected by the wildfires:

  • Students who are directly impacted by the fires and who are currently registered in courses for the November 2024, December 2024 and January 2025 terms have the option of receiving a free eight-week course extension without mentor approval; or, a 100% tuition credit for their course(s) to a future term. Affected students should submit a Request for Course Extension Form or a Request for Course Withdrawal Form indicating “Southern California wildfires” as the reason for the request. Please note that TECEP exams in these terms cannot be extended, nor credited for tuition after the exam has been taken.
  • Impacted students who are currently on a course extension for the September 2024 and October 2024 terms can request a second eight-week extension on their current term at no additional cost.

Request an Accommodation: Students affected by the wildfire and evacuations who need an accommodation should contact the Office of the Registrar by email at registration@tesu.edu or by phone at 609-777-5680. Accommodation requests should be submitted by January 24th. Requests after that date can be accommodated if the student provides documentation of the reason for the late request.

The field of technology is rapidly expanding and offers great opportunities for everyone, but especially for women and minorities who are actively being recruited by organizations across the country.

There is a huge demand for skilled  technology professionals, yet countless positions remain unfilled due to the lack of well trained and educated individuals to fill those vacant seats. Institutions such as Thomas Edison State University are working hard to fill the pipeline with individuals who meet the growing need for a skilled workforce. Welcome and good luck in your career!

The purpose of this website is to provide information of interest to women and minorities to assist you and guide you towards a successful career in technology. At Thomas Edison State University (TESU) there are four distinct areas of study in technology:

Aviation Programs
Aviation Programs
Cybersecurity Programs
Cybersecurity Programs
Information Technology Programs
Information Technology Programs
Nuclear Programs
Nuclear Programs

For detailed information about these specific programs please go visit the School of Science and Technology.

While the school website will provide you with valuable information about the specific programs, this section is geared towards promoting women and minorities in the technology fields and will assist you in your career goals. Here you will find informative webinars, podcasts, blogs, and a helpful ‘coach’s corner’ where you can ask questions about technology and receive answers from our in-house experts. The site will work on a rotational basis, with one of the four fields of technology being highlighted each month. You will find the information on this evolving and expanding site extremely useful. Welcome to the field of technology!
