What's so special about the Ferris State University plastics programs?
Ferris State University is a moderate sized state university with an average enrollment of 10,000 students. It is located in Big Rapids, a small town in Northern Michigan. "Learning by doing" was one of the major principles upon which Ferris was founded in 1886. That principle is still very much alive today at Ferris State, especially in its College of Technology's Plastics Programs. The Plastics Programs at Ferris State began in 1968. Over the years it evolved from a 1-year certificate program into a 2-year AAS (1970) and a 4-year BS(1982) degreed program. And in keeping with the Ferris "Learning By Doing" philosophy, all plastics courses taught at Ferris incorporate a "hands on" lab component. Today, with well over 1000 plastics graduates out in the industry, Ferris State is a well known and respected name in the Plastics Industry. This uncompromising commitment to "Learning By Doing" is also incorporated in all of the Guiness Technologies, Inc. training courses as well.
