In the summer of 2020, Stonehill College and Bridgewater State University began offering a certificate and apprenticeship program for photonics technicians. MIT worked with both schools to develop curriculum, form partnerships with companies and create a technician boot camp offering at MIT. The certification is a 12-month, 24-credit program to prepare students for careers as technicians in the integrated photonics industry.
