CONTENTS Mission

Central Maine Technical College provides quality, accessible college education and lifelong learning opportunities. Therefore, we provide career and technical education; education for transfer to baccalaureate programs; and services to support economic development and community vitality. 2 GENERAL INFORMATION CMTC 2003-2004

A Message from the President We appreciate this opportunity to show you Central Maine Technical College. Through the pages in this catalog you can learn more about the programs, courses, and services available to you. While we are proud of the offerings we present to you here, we cannot show you on mere printed pages the human dimension of our College—a caring faculty and a supportive staff. There are many places you can go to learn, but there are few where you can find people who are as dedicated to serving you as the faculty and staff at this Col- lege. Counselors and advisors will help you select a program and register. Teach- ers will work with you inside and outside of class to develop your full potential. Financial aid specialists will help secure the resources you need to pay for your education. Ajob placement coordinator will help you find the job that will launch your new career and advisors will help you decide how and where to continue your education. You will find caring and supportive people wherever you turn. Please accept our personal invitation to visit the College, to walk through our facilities, to see our up-to-date equipment, but most of all to meet the people who will help you open the doors to your future. Scott E. Knapp President

Accreditation Central Maine Technical College is accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges, Inc., a non- governmental, nationally recognized organization, which recognizes public and private colleges and universities throughout New England that meet its standards. An accredited school or college is one which has available the necessary resources to achieve its stated purposes through appropriate educational programs, is substantially doing so, and gives reasonable evidence that it will continue to do so in the foreseeable future. Institutional integrity is also addressed through accreditation. Accreditation by the New England Association is not partial but applies to the institution as a whole. As such, it is not a guarantee of the quality of every course of program offered, or the competence of individual graduates. Rather, it provides reasonable assurance about the quality of opportunities available to students who attend the institution. Inquiries regarding the status of an institution’s accreditation by the New England Association should be directed to the administrative staff of the school or college. Individuals may also contact the Association: New England Association of Schools and Colleges 209 Burlington Road Bedford, Massachusetts 01730-1433 Tel: (617) 271-0022 Fax: (617) 271-0950 CMTC 2003-2004 GENERAL INFORMATION 3

Central Maine Technical College offers numerous programs of study that lead to the Associate Degree, Diploma or Certifi- cate award. Beginning in the fall of 2002, the College adopted a minimum General Education Core Curriculum that is applicable to all Associate Degree programs. Therefore, all Associate Degree programs of study, require courses in the disciplines that comprise 'general education'. The goal of General Education at CMTC is to foster development of common competencies among all Associate Degree students. This will enable them as graduates, to be successful and productive individuals, be it in the workplace, in upper division programs of study, or in any other personal or professional endeavor they pursue. Students undertake General Education studies which comprise the disciplines of the Humanities, Social Sciences, Mathe- matics and Sciences. These courses provide students with the opportunity to develop competencies deemed necessary by faculty, employees and students.

The competencies developed in General Education, as defined by the College, are: Competency in Critical Thinking and the Scientific Method of Reasoning Competency in Communication Competency in Social responsibility Competency in Lifelong Learning and Self Growth Skills Competency in Information Literacy

General Education Elective Courses by Abbreviation Humanities Electives - ART, ASL, COM, ENG, ESL HUM, INS, LER, MUS, PHI, SPA, SPE Social Science Electives - ECO, GEO, HIS, POS, PSY, SOC, SSC Math/Science Electives- AST, BIO, CHY, GEY, MAT, PHY Please Note: Not all programs can be completed in the evenings. Curricula may be modified without notice as adjustments are made in response to business/industry/occupational needs, Advisory Committee recommendations as well as compliance with the MTCS policies and accreditation standards. Some programs have a selective admissions policy. Please contact the Admissions office for information. A program of study may be discontinued if it fails to meet the standards established by the Maine Technical College System Board of Trustees, or if the College has insufficient funds to sustain it. In the event that a program of study is to be discontinued, the College will make reasonable effort to ensure that students matriculated in that program have the opportunity to complete the program. To that end, the College will offer the courses needed for graduation in the sequence and semester outlined in this catalog; or the College will accept credits for the courses needed from another accredited institution of higher education provided the student has earned a grade of “C” (not “C-”) or better, and when necessary, will waive residency requirements.
