U.S. News and World Report Executive Summary Introduction Alfred State, SUNY College of Technology began as a state school of agriculture in 1908 and was incorporated into the newly organized State University of New York (SUNY) in 1948. SUNY is the largest comprehensive university system in the United States. As one of the 64 colleges and universities comprising SUNY, Alfred State is directly responsible to the SUNY System Administration in Albany, NY. Alfred State is in the college of technology sector within SUNY and offers a distinct blend of quality two- and four-year degree programs. Fifty associate degree programs allow for a variety of concentrations in the fields of architecture, business, health, applied and engineering technologies, and the liberal arts and sciences. Nineteen baccalaureate-degree programs in business, health, human services, and engineering technologies have been designed to meet industry needs and student expectations (see Academic Programs- Full List). The mission, vision, and core values of Alfred State, adopted in 2008, provide the focus and direction that leads to continuous improvement of the College and its assessment efforts. Mission statement. Alfred State, a residential college of technology, provides career- focused education enriched by the liberal arts to produce job- and transfer-ready graduates. Vision statement. Alfred State will be nationally recognized as the College of choice for students seeking a technology-focused education and the preferred college for employers seeking graduates prepared to “hit the ground running.” Core values. We, the Alfred State community, are committed to: Excellence. We provide the highest possible quality education and experiences for our students. We assess our performance and work to continuously improve. We value continuous learning and development for our students and ourselves The needs of our students help to shape our priorities and decisions. We seek to enhance our personal knowledge, skills and abilities. Groups and individuals actively collaborate and share ideas to improve the organization. Integrity. Our actions reflect our words and our values. We are honest and ethical in our words and deeds. We communicate responsibly and truthfully. We are open to feedback and share sincere feedback respectfully. We encourage responsible action in ourselves and in one another. 5 Respect. We practice compassion in the workplace, maintaining the dignity of all community members. We expect an environment where we are free to share ideas openly and without fear. We promote a welcoming environment for all. We honor the differences among us and learn from the backgrounds, experience and thinking of others. We work to understand the perspectives brought by all individuals. Alfred State is located in Allegany County, a county in the Southern Tier of New York State. The College includes two campuses – one located in the Village of Alfred and the second located approximately 15 miles from Alfred in Wellsville. The 260-acre Alfred Campus is centered on an “academic core” of buildings that houses classrooms, lab facilities, faculty offices, and student services. Surrounding the academic structures are 13 residence halls and a townhouse complex that was completed in 2007. The College also includes an 800-acre farm and Motorsports and Veterinary Technology Center off campus in the Village of Alfred. The School of Applied Technology consists of more than 20 buildings on a 21-acre campus in Wellsville. Emphasizing the development of skills pertinent to a specific field, the School of Applied Technology offers the associate degree in occupational studies (AOS). Residential students live on the Alfred campus and free transportation is provided to Wellsville each day. The Wellsville campus, established in 1966, is owned by the Educational Foundation of Alfred, Inc. and leased to the College. The Educational Foundation is a private foundation representing faculty, staff, and friends of Alfred State dedicated to improving the AS community through support of educational programs. The Educational Foundation provides monetary support to enhance learning opportunities for students through scholarships, work grants, and academic club activities. Plans are now underway to construct a new Sustainable Advanced Manufacturing Center (SAMC) to house welding and machine tool programs. SAMC is being funded by a SUNY 2020 grant and will be the first facility built by the State on the Wellsville campus. Alfred State is SUNY’s only college of technology in Western New York. While there are no community or comprehensive colleges in the area, the New York State College of Ceramics
