This major prepares the student to teach in the middle school or secondary school system. The strength of the program lies in its unique collaboration between Education and Technology. Both programs combine a personal touch with "hands-on" learning. Technology Education content is derived from industrial practices and engineering concepts. The student is introduced to the theories, the science and the technology employed by modern manufacturing. All of these concepts are taught in modern laboratory settings designed to give students a complete understanding of equipment, processes, and techniques when processing materials. A primary goal of Technology Education is to promote technological literacy. To achieve this goal, Technology Education prepares students to understand, evaluate, control, and utilize modern technologies. Adapting to technological change and dealing with factors influencing the present and future are reflected in curricular offerings for the major. Students majoring in this field will cover the high demand in schools in the local Palestinian society and even abroad.
