The Southwestern Ohio Council for Higher Education (SOCHE) got a significant booster shot to their Student Research Program this week. The Air Force announced an $8.5 million award which will be used to provide internships and build the area’s tech talent pool in our colleges and universities. The ultimate goal, of course, is to keep these stars around after they graduate so they can continue to strengthen our innovative region.
According to Marcia Hutcheson, the program’s director, “We are thrilled for all the current students in the program, as well the government’s confidence in SOCHE to create new opportunities for students.”
With SOCHE as one of our clients, Bing applauds and appreciates how the 40-year-old organization makes meaningful and lasting connections between southwestern Ohio’s higher ed institutions and the region’s science and technology businesses. Not an easy task to undertake. Please join us in congratulating them on their latest win.
