Making a difference

I want to open my own MRO (maintenance repair operation) and help out some kids back at home and help rebuild my city. I was given an opportunity to learn some things, and I want to give people the same opportunity that I got. It shouldn’t just stop with me.

CoT to help establish Peruvian university

A College of Technology partnership with a Peruvian university is expanding from annual exchange trips to the creation of a new engineering curriculum.

The new University of Engineering and Technology will be known as UTEC.
