Known as the

state's "Technology University" since the implementation of

the Information Technology Project in 1998 wherein all faculty and students

have access to notebook computers Clayton State conferred 315 undergraduate

IT degrees in 2000-2001, well ahead of Tech (258), Georgia State (252)

and UGA (247). Overall, even without graduate degrees or degrees in biotechnology,

engineering or physical science (the other components of the ABC's high-tech

programs list). Clayton State was still fifth in all high-tech degrees

conferred and third in undergraduate high-tech degrees conferred.

The Clayton

State School of Business also appeared in the Book of Lists as the area's

ninth largest business school with 879 students enrolled as of the fall

2001 semester.
