Summary:
The Photonics programs at Stonehill College bring academics and industry together in a state-invested, modern teaching laboratory. With extensive input from local companies, the curriculum features key learning objectives for degree- and certificate-granting programs. The Photonics and Optical Engineering certificate program is particularly unique with its two semesters, 7-week intensive courses, and the flexibility of welcoming students for a fall or spring start. Students earn 21 – 24 college credits and gain knowledge and hands-on experience with optics, photonics, lasers, electronics, and advanced manufacturing. In our fifth year, success stories of technicians in action will be shared.
