For the 2023-24 academic year, NFPA supported Fluid Power Clubs at 21 universities, impacting over 200 students across the US. Each club receives up to $2,000 annually to support student projects and activities that help them learn more about the fluid power industry.
If your company is looking to get more involved with university students this upcoming academic year, consider supporting a fluid power club. Ways to support include:
- Participate in the speaker’s bureau where you present to club students.
- Provide projects to clubs for their students to gain real-world experience.
- Help supply components and materials for students to work on projects.
