San José State University's location in the Silicon Valley makes it an exceptionally rewarding learning environment for students and an exciting place for faculty to teach and conduct research. Silicon Valley companies seek SJSU students for internships, summer work programs and for assistance with research and development projects. Silicon Valley firms employ more graduates from SJSU than from any other university in the nation.
SJSU's Metropolitan Technology Center provides tremendous value to Silicon Valley and ultimately the state of California. When fully operational, MTC will provide:
- Students that are better trained in science, math and technology and can provide a more targeted workforce that meets the demands of high tech in California.
- Quicker output of technology - from innovation to commercialization.
- Accelerated focus on and services to critical cluster industries in California such as Biotech, Air Safety, & Wireless Communication.
- A coordinated and seamless continuum of service in K-18 education that produces a better prepared student, ready to enter California's dynamic workforce, and a better trained teacher able to incorporate technology and science education into the classroom.
- Community Assistance Programs that inform and safeguard our community
