Crichton Odom III

“The Cyber Security program at Richland has allowed me to follow my love for digital technology. Although I have a bachelor’s degree in information technology, I have been interested in obtaining a deeper understanding of the field. 

“This program is so much more than what I have learned in my previous degree studies. It provides me with an understanding that my information technology degree could not. With the training and instruction provided in the Cyber Security program, I am becoming a skilled digital forensics professional.” 

Crichton Odom III earned a bachelor’s degree in information technology from the University of Phoenix and is working toward an associate degree from Richland. His current job in technical support and customer service at Orametrix, a 3-D dental imaging company, is to resolve issues on company products that relate to software, networking and configurations.

“Some people in non-STEM majors reject the idea of being in a STEM organization because they feel they aren’t smart enough or talented enough. I’m not the smartest or most talented person in the room, but I’m curious, and that’s more than enough. Don't let your own sense of limitation stop you.”

Dallas College student Bachelor’s Degree of Applied Technology
“After being homeschooled and graduating high school with dual credit prerequisites already done, I went straight into the workforce, no intention of getting a degree. I worked in a warehouse for about a year and thought about going into welding, but I injured my back. ... At that point I decided to go for my associate degree, which I accomplished, and now I’m working to get my bachelor’s degree of applied technology in software development this fall. I love that I can do it 100% online because I also take care of my family every day.”
