SRNS has been a critical partner since the inception of USC Aiken's industrial process engineering program. During the development of the program, the university and SRNS helped identify current and anticipated workforce requirements and how the program might meet those needs in the region. In addition to providing technical insight and expertise, SRNS has generously given the largest single donation to the university's engineering program, launched fall of 2015. With the incredible financial support of SRNS, the program now has three dedicated faculty members and an initial cohort of students who will graduate in May.

Faculty, staff and students will celebrate this partnership between SRNS and USC Aiken Monday, Nov. 27, at 4 p.m., in the Gregg-Graniteville Learning Commons on campus.
