Technology Day

Posted: Updated:

Underwood High School students took the win again today, and they are the defending champs for five years running at the Minot State University Technology Day.

High school students from the surrounding area meet each year to compete in all things business related: accounting, desktop publishing, webpage design and spreadsheets.

Student host McKenna Larson says it helps the students prepare for the state competition in the spring.

MSU Tech Day has been a part of the Department of Business Technology for fifteen years and over that time, the competition has evolved with the technology available.

(McKenna Larson, MSU Business Education Student) "Every year we try to make the test a little bit harder, just with the advancement of all their skills. Every year they blow us away with the results that we get."

Eleven teams were involved in the Technology Day today.
