To achieve this goal our department is organized with individual responsibilities clearly communicated, while at the same time working together closely as a team. CTP is currently in year two of a 10-year Strategic Plan for growth in terms of size and effectiveness. Our department is highly valued and supported by college administration, faculty, students, and alumni.
