Cal U Grant Addresses Workforce Needs

Jobs requiring a computing degree are in red-hot demand and projected to stay that way for at least several years.  

Two professors at Cal U have received a grant that will help Pennsylvania meet that workforce-development need.  

Dr. Lisa Kovalchick and Dr. Pratibha Menon, who teach in the computer information systems program, recently received a PAsmart Advancing Grant to help fill what the commonwealth predicts will be 300,000 jobs related to science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) by 2026.
