Michelin offers different initiatives with a shared commitment to prepare talented young people for industrial careers in the workforce of the future.
The Technical Scholars Program selects students to develop hands-on work experience while earning their degree in Mechatronics, Mechanical Engineering Technology (MET) or Electronics Engineering Technology (EET). Michelin Technical Scholars receive scholarships to cover the cost of tuition, fees and books for the program along with competitive pay and part-time work in a Michelin manufacturing facility.
Michelin Manufacturing Scholars was established as a partnership between Anderson, South Carolina and Tri-County Technical College in 2017. The program was adopted by our Spartanburg facility, in collaboration with Spartanburg Community College in the spring of 2018.
The Manufacturing Scholars program is intended to give candidates with no manufacturing background a means to move into that environment. The factory/school partnership provides candidates with both hands-on manufacturing experience and enrollment in a manufacturing certificate program that provides credentials which could be important to any manufacturing employer.

During their time within the facility, candidates work side by side with current employees and contribute to the success of our plant. By doing so, the candidate receives the best view of manufacturing we can provide to allow them to understand and experience working in a Michelin team.
