Johnson Controls Navy Systems connected with Penn College through referrals from recent graduates and by networking with faculty and students.
The Corporate Tomorrow Makers Program provides a conduit for reaching students and faculty to showcase our company and influence curricula to address industry needs. As a result, we are able to build relationships with students that present great opportunities after graduation.
Penn College students are well prepared for the workforce. Their maturity level and ability to interact with varying degrees of experience and skill are a catalyst for teamwork and collaboration. Graduates are able to apply theory to mitigate constraints and grow concepts into reality. These graduates also bring an energy to the workplace that increases workforce involvement and effort.
Johnson Controls Navy Systems creates positive employee experiences that foster growth and sustainability. Our capital investments in machining and welding technologies are propelling us to be an employer of choice in York, Pennsylvania. Engaged employees create a positive work environment supported by continuing education and growth opportunities. The products we produce provide mission critical support for our U.S. Navy warfighters and can be found on all surface and sub-surface ships in the combatant fleet. GO NAVY!
It has been our experience that Penn College creates an environment for students to excel in both academia and the workplace. Their networking gives students access to rewarding careers. Upon graduation, these students are fully prepared to contribute and be influential from day one.
Students need to find their passion. Use the time at Penn College to discover what they like to do and what characteristics of a career excite them. I encourage students to take advantage of the many internships and field trips to discover what the industry has to offer.
"Johnson Controls Navy Systems is proud to support Penn College through grants, donations of materials, and lab test equipment. The skills these graduates develop from the hands-on instruction prepare them for success within our workforce from the start. We value our partnership with Penn College and look forward to continued engagement with expansion into other career fields."
Penn College's strong corporate partnerships impact every step of the student journey–from scholarships and equipment donations to internships and employment opportunities.
