A veteran support group at SDSU provides community support and career guidance for those who want to go from military technician to civilian engineer.
“This program is essentially a way to help veteran students bridge that gap and overcome those hurdles of transitioning from the military, where they have spent all of their adult lives, into a civilian career," said Joshua Imes, the program manager for Troops to Engineers.
Focusing on student veterans, he said 90% of them are over the age of 25. Sixty percent of them have families. They are typically going to work while they’re going to school and, having left the military, they are starting a second career. Troops to Engineers offers some scholarship opportunities for veterans, according to Imes. It connects them with engineering companies like Northrop Grumman, where Samaniego has been interning.
