JACOBS LINKS WITH ASF AS WORKFORCE PARTNER

We are pleased to announce that Jacobs, one of the world’s largest and most diverse providers of technical professional and construction services, has stepped up to be the first corporate partner in the STEM Workforce Partner campaign.

“Jacobs is pleased to join forces with ASF through the STEM Workforce initiative. As one of the world’s largest and most diverse providers of technical professional and construction services, the secret to our success is recruiting the best and brightest employees. We firmly believe in supporting efforts such as these to ensure that today’s students pursue higher education so that we will have the qualified workforce necessary to meet the growing technical demands of tomorrow,” states Andy Allen, TOSC General Manager, KSC.

Through this initiative, STEM Workforce Partners help raise awareness of the impact that science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) have on our nation’s progress and economy. This partnership provides the unique opportunity for companies to engage with some of the best and brightest STEM university students, be among the first to recruit from this talent pool, and have a hands-on approach to developing tomorrow’s STEM workforce.

Dan Pierre, VP for Jacobs AERO Line of Business, related that “We are very excited to have the opportunity to support and connect with current and upcoming Astronaut Scholars through this partnership, and encourage similar technically minded enterprises to join forces in stimulating the ambitions and aspirations of our future scientists, engineers, and business/government leaders.”
