GAIN program targets community college students
|
Regional employers see too few qualified candidates for materials science-related jobs, MIT Assistant Professor of Materials Science and Engineering Rafael Jaramillo says, but many community college students are unaware of the opportunities. Jaramillo hopes to grow the pool of materials scientists beginning with one student at a time.
