Assistive Technology Careers
I would like to strongly encourage our CIS majors to look into a career in programming and engineering communication devices for the disabled. I know many children and adults who are disabled physically but are incredibly bright.
The young adults who are disabled are just as much interested in chatting, networking, web surfing and communicating with the world as their non-disabled counterparts.
Go to the Rehab Tool Website to get an idea of what Assistive Technology is about. The University of Michigan offers a Graduate Rehab Engineering Program. There are many great graduate and fellowship programs that could use highly skilled techno geeks!!
