CICERO — SRC, Inc. has two new programs in place to support education in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) and community service.
The SRC STEM Scholars Program will provide four high school seniors entering college in the fall of 2013 and planning to study in a STEM-related field with $10,000 scholarships. SRC STEM scholars will also be guaranteed an internship at the company after their sophomore and junior years of college and will participate in a summer program where they will learn more about STEM fields, according to SRC.
SRC designed the program in collaboration with the CNY STEM Hub. More information is available at www.srcinc.com/stemscholars.
The second program, the SRC Community Internship Program, will provide paid summer internships to college-level dependents of SRC employees at local nonprofit organizations. The internships will be funded by SRC and made available at all of the company’s locations across the country.
The program will be coordinated through a partnership with United Way of Central New York and other local United Way chapters around the nation.
SRC is a nonprofit research and development company.
SRC and its for-profit manufacturing subsidiary, SRCTec, together employ about 1,100 people at 15 locations in Colorado, Maine, Maryland, New York, Ohio, Texas, and Virginia. The firms are headquartered in Cicero and also have an office in Rome.
The companies work frequently on defense-related projects.
