Do Colleges need to become more Tech Savvy to Restore the Luster of the Bachelor’s Degree?
It doesn’t appear to be a good time for the education sector, as many both within and outside of education, debate the value of a 4-year college degree at a time when its costs are skyrocketing and it takes on average, 5 years to complete.
A few weeks ago, we looked at how technology can help improve the K-12 space and this week, we look at higher education. Our guest, Stephen diFilipo, Vice President and Chief Information Officer at Cecil College will help us understand how the rapid pace of technology innovation is forcing changes in higher education. Changes our colleges and universities must be ready and willing to accept to restore people’s confidence in a Bachelor’s degree – or slide further into irrelevancy.
If you are in or are sending kids to College now or soon, you will want to catch this episode. Join Us!

About Technology Today
Innovations in business and personal technology are occurring faster than we can comprehend or keep up with. Learning about, and then assimilating, all the advances that may have an impact upon our daily lives could easily become a full-time job that few of us have time for.
Technology Today Radio with Ajay Gupta airs on BlogTalkRadio and takes the effort out of learning what’s new, what makes sense in your world, and how to leverage it all for business and personal benefit. Technology Today is premised upon the fundamental belief that technology is here to improve our lives and solve the problems of the world.
Each week, Ajay and his guests explore a variety of timely topics, relevant issues, emerging trends and public policies to help put the power of technology in your hands. Topics will range from green and clean tech to health care and cyber security.
Ajay interviews CEOs, government officials, leading scientists, researchers and engineers as well as the people responsible for creating and deploying the technology that works to better our lives and our future. We also invite you to call in, e-mail, or text Ajay with questions or comments for our guests.
