GE selected Greenville as one of four inaugural locations, aiming to inspire more than 3,500 local students ages 13-18, provide first-hand experiences of engineering, and award financial support to pursue education in engineering. GE will work directly with Clemson University to implement Next Engineers.

 “Bringing diverse young voices to engineering is imperative as these students will power and lead the change our world needs,” said John Intile, vice president, GE Gas Power Engineering.

 Next Engineers offers 3programs to engage students on their paths to engineering studies:  

• Engineering Discovery for students ages 13-14 (8th grade) 
• Engineering Camp for students ages 14-15 (rising 9th grade) 
• Engineering Academy for students ages 15-18 (grades 9 - 12)
