High-achieving DMC students and graduates participating in the program are developing quality control and equipment operation skills to help increase the supply of lithium and cathode in North America, making it local to Texas.<\/p>\n
Chemical Operations Intern and DMC Process Technology major Stan Perkins II noted, \u201cWorking at Tesla provides on-the-job experience to troubleshoot issues in real-time, an understanding of day-to-day safety operations and the opportunity to apply what I\u2019ve already learned. Through this internship, I\u2019m helping drive sustainable energy right here in Corpus Christi and build the next evolution of chemical refining in the Bay Area.\u201d<\/p>\n
The partnership runs through 2026. Tesla representatives shared future opportunities and recruited the next cohort of DMC students last month for spring internships.<\/p>\n
\u201cDel Mar College administrators, staff, faculty and students are enthusiastic about our partnership with Tesla. Our relationship will take the college and our region to greater heights while benefitting our students and their families,\u201d said Dan Korus, DMC Dean of Workforce Programs and Corporate Services. \u201cWe\u2019re very grateful for the opportunity to partner with Tesla and look forward to seeing the success it will bring.\u201d<\/p>\n
