Industry Relations

WELCOME

Engineers' Week 2023 was a success!  The CEC students engaged with several companies at the DEI Employer Showcase, students and faculty raced their Sphero Chariots, CEC student organizations held an open house, Burns & McDonnell shared cookies, pizza, and knowledge on transitioning from a student to a professional, and the week ended with a movie and popcorn night.

Thank you to the faculty, students, and companies that made Engineers' Week a celebration of engineering and computing science.

Do you want to add new courses to your current upskill course lineup?


With Ohio TechCred, employers can be reimbursed for the cost of the courses. 
 TechCred funding is open in March.  CEC currently offers advanced manufacturing, materials evaluation, regulatory affairs, and data science courses and workshops that pair with Ohio TechCred.  
CEC can help and work with you to develop courses customized to your needs and Ohio TechCred can pay for those courses.
