NUCOR Seeks FDTC Electrical & Mechanical Students

NUCOR is searching for trained maintenance employees. Students who complete the NUCOR-approved Electrical and Mechanical A.S. degree courses at Florence-Darlington Technical College will have an opportunity to interview if they have a qualifying GPA.

The interested student would enroll in one of the programs, and when NUCOR has a maintenance intern position available, they will pick from the students in the program. If a student doesn't get picked prior to graduation and has a qualifying GPA, then the student will have a guaranteed interview with NUCOR following graduation. 

For more information, please call 843-413-2746. Below are the course layouts for both programs:
