Project TLC is a unique program that is
offered only at Three Rivers Community College and is funded by
the National Science Foundation. We are currently recruiting our third
cohort, which will begin taking courses at Three Rivers in August of
2009.
Project TLC is a learning community
designed for students in two-year associate degree programs in the
fields of engineering technology. Majors include:
Architectural Design

Tech.
Mechanical Engineering Tech.
Project TLC students study together in
classes taught by dedicated TLC staff. Throughout the experience,
students will be mentored by a dedicated technology advisor to ensure
they make full use of the various support services offered by the
college.
Project TLC students will also participate
in a paid (up to $720) four-week Summer Institute beginning in August of
2009 to prepare for their first semester of college. During the Summer
Institute, students study math, English, and college readiness material.
Students partake in weekly field trips to local companies to see
first-hand what types of jobs might be available to them with an
associate degree in an engineering technology field.
Project TLC offers support to
foster self-confidence, and ultimately, to assure student
success, as participants progress from the community college to
either a four-year university or the workplace.
The deadline to apply is April 15,
2009. For further information or an
