LEARN AND GROW WITH LDA ENGINEERING
LDA Engineering is committed to the future of the engineering industry and communities that the company serves. With this passion in mind, the firm has pledged $250,000 of employee time and financial donations over the next 10 years (2016-2025) to support school systems in East Tennessee. Our goal is to assist with activities that will develop future engineers and scientists.
We’re inviting students and teachers from area school districts, including Alcoa, Blount County, Clayton-Bradley STEM Academy, Hamblen County, Knox County, Maryville and Oak Ridge, to submit applications annually to help us identify worthy partners for the upcoming academic year.
We also offer great opportunities for college students who are pursuing STEM education.
