Newest Edition of ‘Tri-C Times’ Focuses on STEM
Spring 2021 edition of the magazine is now available online
Future job outlooks illustrate the importance of STEM. Employment in occupations related to STEM — science, technology, engineering and math — are projected to increase by 8% by 2029.
That’s why STEM, in many ways, is regarded as the focus of our nation’s economic future.
The Spring 2021 issue of Tri-C Times magazine highlights how Cuyahoga Community College (Tri-C®) is working to stay at the forefront of STEM education and training to help Northeast Ohio seize these opportunities.
The cover story explores Tri-C’s longtime involvement in a National Institutes of Health initiative — the Bridges to the Baccalaureate Research Training Program — that has yielded remarkable student success outcomes.
Other STEM-focused stories outline biology professor Beth Vaidya’s research; efforts by IT student Samuel Paredes to launch a cybersecurity program for young Clevelanders; and the College’s critical role with the Workforce Connect Healthcare Sector Partnership.
These stories illustrate the breadth of STEM at Tri-C and the College’s role in shaping a vibrant future for the region in critical fields.
The spring issue of the magazine shows Tri-C’s impact on the community in numerous other ways, too — particularly as it relates to helping others as they navigate the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting economic distress.
In addition, you’ll read about how the College provided Fox 8’s Wayne Dawson the boost he needed to launch an award-winning career and how Tri-C has embraced the concept of “green” building.
Tri-C Times is an award-winning publication produced by the College’s Integrated Communications department. Honors include a 2020 Paragon Silver Award announced in March by the National Council for Marketing and Public Relations.
