Port of Corpus Christi Awards $20K to Fund TAMU-CC Engineering Capstone Projects
CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas - The Port of Corpus Christi has accepted Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi’s invitation to be a part of the Industry Capstone Sponsorship Program. In this program, companies offer project ideas relevant to their industry for the capstone student teams so that students can solve real-world engineering problems.
The Port of Corpus Christi has generously awarded TAMU-CC’s full request of $20,000 to fund engineering capstone projects. As a sponsor, the Port of Corpus Christi will be recognized by having its logo in digital promotions and will be offered an invitation for an engineer or engineering project/hiring manager to serve as a judge in the capstone project presentations.
“The Port of Corpus Christi has long believed that collaborating with vital institutions like Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi is essential for the sustainable development and well-being of our region,” said Kent Britton, Chief Executive Officer for the Port of Corpus Christi. “The shared commitment to working together not only fosters open communication and understanding, but also creates a foundation for shared prosperity throughout the Coastal Bend.”
