Engineering Ambassadors

Partner with WPI today to sponsor the Engineering Ambassador program, and together we can strengthen your organization and fortify your talent pipeline. 

Part of the WPI mission is to inspire young diverse minds by reaching as many middle- and high school students as possible. By introducing young students to the principles of engineering in a dynamic hands-on environment, WPI’s specially trained engineering ambassadors teach students to innovate and engineer at a very young age. When your company sponsors WPI Engineering Ambassadors: you inspire and empower top-level college student leaders, you provide middle and high school students with strong STEM role models through impactful hands-on experiences, and you gain a direct recruitment pipeline to world-class talent.

Kids Love the Engineering Ambassadors

This was an amazing experience for our TRIO Talent Search scholars, and I know this trip left a lasting impact on them in terms of being able to see themselves as students on a college campus. Perhaps you will see some of them in the future as freshmen!

We had an AMAZING time. It really was fun and the kids will be starting their own projects in a week or so.
