Prospective students and their families can discover the diverse “degrees that work” offered by Pennsylvania College of Technology and explore campus life when the college holds an Open House on Saturday, March 29.
A full slate of activities and tours will be offered during Open House, which takes place from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the main campus in Williamsport. Free transportation will be provided to and from the college’s Schneebeli Earth Science Center and Lumley Aviation Center nearby.
“Penn College’s Spring 2014 Open House is where you can find out what we’re all about,” said Dennis L. Correll, associate dean for admissions and financial aid. “State-of-the-art labs, classrooms, dining facilities and residence halls distinguish Penn College as the place where you can earn a degree and stand apart from other graduates.”

Penn College students learn in hands-on fashion from faculty with industry experience, using the latest equipment and technologies.
“We are known regionally and nationally for assisting employers who are facing a projected shortage of 600,000 educated and skilled employees in the coming years,” Correll added. “Companies large and small look to Penn College to assist them in filling such positions. When you visit Penn College, you’ll know it’s the right place to launch your future career."
