Optics and photonics have become leading fields encompassing all aspects of our lives. The Optics Technology profession provides various career paths from medicine to defense to communications.
Skilled optical technicians work with engineers and scientists to manufacture many products vital to modern life, like cameras, consumer electronics, sensors & solar panels, to name just a few. That's why the demand for optics professionals is so high. SCCC students have jobs lined up before graduating.
