Student Engagement

Academics

While CTG UAlbany is not a degree-granting organization, we have close ties to academic programs at the University at Albany through our work in teaching, mentoring and advising students, as well as the design and development of specific courses.

We develop and teach courses within the nationally-ranked Information Technology Management at Rockefeller College of Public Affairs & Policy and have teaching and mentoring partnerships with Rock College and the College of Emergency Preparedness, Homeland Security and Cybersecurity for students pursuing a Ph.D. in Information Science.


Students

Student Interns

CTG UAlbany has worked with many graduate and undergraduate students at the University at Albany for the last 25 years. Students come from multiple and diverse departments across the university, reflecting the socio-technical approach we use in our projects.

Some of the departments represented are Public Administration and Policy, Information Science, Computer Science, Communication, Criminal Justice, Education, and the School of Business, among others.

As part of our Student Technology Innovations Lab Experience (STILE) program, we offer funded graduate assistantships and student assistant positions through externally funded research and other projects we bring into the University.

In partnership with UAlbany colleges and departments, CTG UAlbany also serves as a site for academic (for credit) internships. There is also the opportunity for independent studies, particularly for doctoral students.
