Wichita State partners with Boeing as part of $380,000 investment

Boeing is investing $380,000 to inspire the next generation of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) innovators, ensure that veterans and military families have the tools and resources they need to thrive, and to advance programs aimed at eliminating hunger.

Boeing’s investment includes five Wichita grant partners: Wichita State University, Wichita State University Campus of Applied Sciences and Technology (WSU Tech), the Kansas Aviation Museum, Passageways Wichita and the Kansas Food Bank.

“This grant helps prepare more students for careers in a rapidly changing industry while strengthening the talent pipeline in our region,” President Rick Muma said. “We’re grateful for Boeing’s continued partnership and its commitment to long-term impact.”
