QTC Donates Components to California State University

January 15, 2013
Quality Transmission Components announces the donation of various industrial automation components to the California State University at Pomona Solar Boat student team, enabling the students to better learn about alternative designs for use in the concept building of an alternative fuel vehicle. “We welcome the opportunity to support up and coming engineers in these types of engineering endeavors. The students not only put to use the engineering skills that they will need when they enter the workforce, but they also learn about teamwork and invaluable communication skills which are sometimes overlooked in a technical education,” said Brian Dengel, assistant vice president and general manager at Quality Transmission Components. The students at Cal Poly Pomona will benefit from the team building that a project like the Solar Boat requires. With Quality Transmission Components donating these components, the students can avoiding spending their time on fundraising, resulting in more time being spent refining their designs and preparing their written reports.
