A key aspect of Austin Polytech's innovative educational approach is our focus on teaching through partnerships with manufacturers around the Chicago area. Over 60 partners have signed on to help our students learn about manufacturing first-hand.

Partnerships are the foundation of Austin Polytech's college- and career-prep program. Your company can help our students learn real world skills through:

• Financial Support: Help us make Austin Polytech a world-class school.

• Operational Support: Provide technology and curriculum advice.

• Mentoring and Guidance: Lead a tour of your facility, share your experiences with a class, or mentor a student-run business.

• Work Experience: Recruit students for internships and summer jobs.
