COLUMBUS, Ohio--Intel officials announced Thursday that the company will provide $100 million to establish semiconductor manufacturing education and research programs, at least half of which will go to Ohio higher-education institutions.
“This is going to address immediate semiconductor manufacturing technical challenges and workforce shortages,” said Christy Pambianchi, Intel executive vice president and chief people officer, during an announcement event at Columbus State Community College. She said that Intel’s Ohio factory complex will create 3,000 jobs, with education requirements that range from a two-year associate degree to a doctorate.
In addition, some of the money will go toward STEM development programs at the local, regional and national level, including a manufacturing technician certification effort, she said.
