Our Curriculum
Every ETC student begins with the Immersion Semester: four core courses that give our students a strong foundation in collaboration, creativity, and technology. After that, it’s all about project work. For each of three semesters remaining semesters, students tackle a new challenge and build a working prototype in just a few weeks. Sometimes, it's one they pitched themselves; other times, it's on behalf of a company or nonprofit. Every time, it's a glimpse of the future.
When we say we’re a master’s degree, we’re really not like any master’s degree you’ve ever seen.

Career Services
Professional development is part of the ETC experience from day one.
