New Engineering Program in Place

A new agreement with colleges in Minnesota’s Iron Range area will see engineering students able to earn a four-year mechanical engineering degree from Minnesota State University by working in their prospective field.

Students will spend up to three days each week working with engineers at Iron Range businesses, and two days in a classroom at Mesabi Range Community and Technical College which has campuses in Eveleth and Virginia.

The Arrowhead University Consortium Iron Range Engineering program now has 15 students with as many as 25 expected next fall and includes participation from Rainy River Community College in International Falls.
