MONROE, Mich. (AP) — The DTE Energy Foundation has made a $1 million contribution to support the capital campaign for a new Career Technology Center at Monroe County Community College.
The funding announced earlier this month also aims to promote diversity at the school.
The $17 million, 60,000-square-foot center is scheduled to open in the fall. Officials say they want to help prepare people for high-demand, high-paying jobs.
Detroit-based DTE Energy Co. has partnered with the school on several efforts, including development of the college's nuclear engineering technology program. DTE's power plants in Monroe County include the Fermi 2 nuclear plant in Frenchtown Township.
