Majors

Alumni Success Stories - Felicia Nichols (Welding)

"I received more support at York Technical College and felt like it was more of a community than I ever did at my four-year program. York Tech is doing some amazing things, [so] after I graduated, I became their first African American female welding instructor."

Strong Community & Supportive Faculty

Alumni Success Stories - Jacob Anglin (Machine Tool Technology)

"I knew I wanted to find something I enjoy doing that also makes me good money and will keep me interested for as long as I am working. After some research, I discovered machine tool technology. It’s just an incredible program. When I went for my interview with the job that I currently have, they were extremely impressed with the level of knowledge that I have with only nine months of experience."

A Smart Investment

Alumni Success Stories - Ashley Lang (Teleproduction Technology)

"I would also say that York Tech gave me my confidence back. The best part for me was that it was hands-on from day one. I have been fortunate, and I really don’t think I would be where I am today in any aspect of life—being a mom, being a wife, or in my profession—if I hadn’t attended York Technical College."

Practical, Hands-on Learning

Alumni Success Stories - Anthony Cherry (EMT and Paramedic)

"You don't need to go to a four year school to have the college experience. Go to Tech, get your prerequisites and focus on yourself first. York Tech will give you everything that you want, so whatever you want to get out of it, they're willing and able to give you."
