About Technological Studies at Bemidji State University
Find your specialty.
Choose from 10 undergraduate and two graduate programs. All programs are hands-on, interdisciplinary experiences that build broad perspectives and specialized skills.
Be imaginative.
Our students are challenged to think critically and draw on knowledge from across disciplines. They learn to develop innovative solutions needed to be successful professionals.
Go high-tech.
Enjoy hands-on learning in high-tech, state-of-the-art labs. Assigned projects simulate real-world experiences using industry standard processes, materials and technologies in devising solutions. You'll experience the kinds of cutting-edge technology found in the workplace.
Engage and achieve.
Our lab classes are small, most under 20 students, so you'll work closely with faculty members who offer a wide breadth of expertise in helping navigate your learning journey. Faculty members provide feedback throughout projects so learning happens in real-time, not just when projects are completed.

Excel academically and personally.
Our programs offer opportunities to build relationships with friends and mentors, pursue activities that help you become physically fit and mentally sharp, and get involved locally or globally with issues that matter to you. Whatever your interests, you'll find experiences that help you lead a more meaningful personal and professional life.
Gain experience
Most specializations within Technological Studies offer an internship option. These experiences extend lessons learned in the classroom and prepare students to enter the workplace with confidence. Many interns are paid, and some intern positions lead to full-time employment.
See the Undergraduate and Graduate Programs to see how internships fit into the different degree programs offered.
Build industry connections.
We're connected to industry. Our faculty work with industry advisory boards that meet at least once each year at Bemidji State to review curriculum, industry needs and opportunities. These advisory boards keep faculty and students alert to emerging industry trends, challenges and technologies. They also create opportunities for scholarships, internships and mentorship.
