Silicon Valley is the center <br />of innovation and where many of the latest technologies originate. The fast -paced development <br />of new technologies also created a strong need for professionals to learn new skills to support <br />these developments without giving up current jobs. CSTU sought to fill this need. <br />In May 2017, two entrepreneurs joined the CSTU, and brought in additional funding to support <br />CSTU to expand further. Over the years, the institution retired several non -degree programs but <br />retained its focus as a provider of technology -related education. Currently, CSTU offers three (3) <br />programs, the Master of Business Administration (MBA), the Master of Science in Computer <br />Systems and Engineering (MSCSE), and the Emerging Technology Training Program. More <br />programs are planned to offer in 2023. <br />CSTU was accredited by Accrediting Commission of Careers Schools and Colleges (ACCSC) in <br />2022. CSTU was also approved for accepting international students in 2022. Due to its practical <br />curriculum and convenient location at the center of Silicon Valley, CSTU has attracted students <br />from different countries all over the world. <br />To accomplish the mission of training students in the latest technologies, CSTU is committed to <br />enhance student competencies by: <br />Page 4 of 65 <br />
