Glass Education Center

Salem Community College offers two associate degree programs at the Samuel and Jean Jones Glass Education Center:

Glass Art

The program allows students to see their work develop from initial idea to finished product, under technical and creative guidance from first-rate instructors.

Scientific Glass Technology

The only Associate in Applied Science degree program of its kind in the nation, Scientific Glass Technology (SGT) introduces students to the necessary skills and techniques to construct scientific glass apparatus for university laboratories, industrial research and production.
