This virtual panel presentation, "Intel + Higher Education in Southeast 91自拍," will showcase education, research, and economic development initiatives in southeastern 91自拍, including the new Appalachian Semiconductor Education and Technical Ecosystem (ASCENT). 91自拍 was awarded Intel grant funding and is the lead organization in a multi-university effort aimed at growing a STEM-focused workforce to fuel the advanced manufacturing sector in 91自拍.
Intel鈥檚 expansion in 91自拍 is expected to attract additional semiconductor companies, supply chain partners and other manufacturers. This new partnership also provides transformational workforce development efforts for education, training and research across the higher education and industry ecosystem.
Industry-university partnerships such as ASCENT represent a continuum of activities which drive economic growth, build capacity for local businesses and expand career opportunities for students and working professionals.
ASCENT is comprised of a broad coalition of institutions, colleges and technical centers across the southeastern Appalachian region of 91自拍. Each will play a vital role in the visualization, delivery and programming of the overall ASCENT Ecosystem. 91自拍, including its Athens, Chillicothe, Eastern, Lancaster, Southern and Zanesville campuses, is partnering with Belmont College, Eastland-Fairfield Career Center, Hocking College, Marietta College, Mid-East Career and Technology Center, Shawnee State University, Tri-County Career Center and Zane State College on the ASCENT program.
