"STCC started the pathway to my career. I began taking classes at STCC after entering a career in Fire Services. I earned an associate degree in Fire Safety and Technology from STCC. The education you receive from STCC can help further your career path to success. Make STCC part of your journey."
Tyrone Denson, 1999, District Chief, Springfield Fire Department
Fire Investigators are employed by local, state and federal agencies and the private sector. As a qualified fire investigator, you’ll need a sharp eye, dedicated commitment to discovering the truth, and the professional integrity to follow your findings through the legal system. The Fire Investigation program can open doors to this exciting field where you can make a difference. Students finishing this option will be prepared to continue in their education towards a Bachelor’s degree in Fire Investigation, Homeland Security or Fire Science, based on their desired area of interest.

Are you a Ram Warrior?
Make an immediate and consistent impact on the future of STCC students today by enrolling in the Rams Warrior Society!
Many alumni and friends of the college have already enrolled, and represent STCC’s most loyal donors, those who make their annual gifts in monthly installments. Their impact on students as they transform their lives is incredible, consistent, and allows STCC to forecast support.
Your consistent gift allows the college to direct student support on a predictable basis, which for us is invaluable. The Rams Warrior Society is truly shaped by the leading philanthropists at the college – not only do they support our students, but their consistency allows us to better budget financial aid for our students.
"I truly believe that the mission of STCC is among the most important in Greater Springfield. What the school does for the long term growth of individuals and the region is immeasurably important. Springfield centric, regionally focused, the school prepares young people of all ages to build our economy. STCC, its administration, its staff, and its students play a key role for the future, and they are all worth investing in."
