The [[Appropriate Technology]] (AT) concentration has been a program in the Technology Department since 1984 and for six years was known as Earth Studies, formerly under the Interdiciplinary Studies Department. It is currently the only program of it's kind in the United States and is the oldest continuing operating university program for the study of appropriate technology in the country. It offers both undergraduate and graduate students a broad education in many technical areas. Students develop an in depth understanding of solar, wind, and hyro power, sustainable transportation, resource management, and organic agriculture. Hands on activities are emphasized. A strong technical foundation also includes the study of wood working, metals, construction, drafting, design, manufacturing, computer technology, photography, graphic arts, ceramics, and electronics.
