Following the University of Wisconsin (UW) System Board of Regents’ approval of a mechanical engineering program and other components of a university/community shared vision for STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) at UW-Green Bay, the university and two community partners have shared details on how they plan to move the program from concept to reality, expediting the university’s ability to meet the region’s rising demand for engineering talent.
Richard Resch, CEO of international office furniture manufacturer KI, will support the university’s engineering plan with a $5 million gift. The university will name the new school the Richard J. Resch School of Engineering in honor of this gift.
The Wisconsin Public Service (WPS) Foundation announced a $1 million contribution to support STEM education. “Our company relies heavily on STEM skills to help us serve our communities with safe, reliable energy and outstanding customer service. We are confident our donation will greatly enhance education, foster future investment in the community, and lead to economic growth throughout our region,” said WPS President Kevin Fletcher.
The plan also includes establishing a School of Engineering and paves the way for development of Phoenix Innovation Park, a county-developed innovation park on university land, to attract STEM entities to the region. The Brown County STEM Innovation Center will be the inaugural tenant in the park. In addition to the Richard J. Resch School of Engineering, the building also will be home to UW Extension, Brown County Land & Water Conservation, and Einstein Project.
