Service Description
A facility tour is an organized visit to a company's or organization's physical site, such as a manufacturing plant, research lab, or office, designed to give participants a behind-the-scenes look at the operations, technologies, and workflows. When partnering with Troops to Engineers, facility tours offer veteran engineering students an opportunity to explore real-world environments, network with industry professionals, and gain insights into potential career paths in engineering and related fields. These tours help bridge the gap between academic learning and practical, hands-on experience.
