PennTAP Announces Vouchers for PSU Learning Factory Projects for Fall 2020 Semester

image_pdfPrint PDFimage_printPrint

PennTAP is currently looking for industry participants for Penn State’s College of Engineering Learning Factory program.

There are a few changes for the Fall 2020 semester program due to the current pandemic environment that interested parties must be aware of:

  • No site visits are going to be permitted at this time
  • Students can utilize the Learning Factory to work on physical prototypes (if necessary) up until Thanksgiving break
  • After Thanksgiving break, students will not be returning to campus and will finish the semester virtually.
  • The end of semester project showcase will take place virtually (similar to the link above)

With this restrictions, do you have any projects based on digital technologies in mind for your business?

The cost to sponsor a project team is $3,500 for the semester. PennTAP has vouchers that reduces the fee in half for companies that can show a financial need. Project proposals are due 8/3 for the Fall 2020 semester.
