Outreach and Education
University Relations
We are committed to developing the next generation of engineers through higher education. Our University Relations team engages with university and technical school partners around the world in many ways, including providing financial and equipment donations, serving on university advisory boards, preparing guest lectures, participating in university career fairs, sponsoring student projects, offering scholarship opportunities, and hiring interns.
Endowed Positions
For SEL to continue its rich tradition of innovation, we need highly educated engineers who understand the fundamentals of electric power systems. SEL and SEL founder Edmund O. Schweitzer, III, and his wife, Beatriz, established endowed positions at three universities to encourage and support electrical engineering programs.
