Story

"I was looking for a 2-year program rather than a 4-year, so I looked into M State and a couple of other colleges close by. I job-shadowed a worker at the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) who went to M State and recommended it, so I chose M State. 

I like the Survey Tech program. I like that I get to be outside and do hands-on things, not just sit in a classroom all day. I get to go outside and see something new every day. The teachers and advisors are very welcoming and helpful, too. After I’m done with school, I’m going to be working at MnDOT. I went to a meet-and-greet event last year and talked to someone from MnDOT’s human resources department, and then interned there over the summer. At the end of the internship, they offered me a position. It’ll be nice to not have to job hunt; it’s all lined up already."
