STEM careers are possible. Data shows, STEM fields are among the most sought after degrees for student veterans. 

Our goal is to guide veterans, like you, who have strong work ethic and solid work histories, into sustainable energy careers.

We do this through a combination of formal or technical education, basic career prep, internships, and/or fellowships based on the needs of each veteran. 

Transition is a uniquely stressful time for many veterans, with unique challenges and stressors that are uncommon to the general college population. The VTEC team supports and mentors participants toward their individualized goals to ensure they can smoothly navigate the various obstacles veterans often encounter.
