We’re always looking for the best and brightest to join our team, and we know that top talent starts with education and training. We’re investing in the next generation of talent, the future of Enterprise and our community by supporting one of our top hiring partners (we’ve hired more than 80 SIUE engineering students and grads in just the past 5 years!).

The Enterprise Holdings Foundation has donated $1.5 million to the Southern Illinois University Edwardsville School of Engineering (SOE). The three-year, $500,000 annual contribution marks the SOE’s largest gift to date, and further solidifies the nationally-recognized SIUE SOE as a top tier institution cultivating academically and technically prepared talent.

The donation will be used to support the renovation of the school’s atrium into a collaborative student workspace. The technologically reimagined and renovated Enterprise Holdings Foundation Atrium will prominently display the strong partnership between the SOE and Enterprise Holdings.

Enterprise Holdings has partnered with the SIUE School of Engineering for several years to connect students and graduates with career opportunities in its IT department. And with SIUE’s rigorous academic standards and aggressive approach to innovation, the partnership has created an ongoing talent pipeline to meet changing demands for technical talent. In the past five years alone, Enterprise has hired more than 80 SIUE engineering students and graduates into full-time roles as well as the company’s IT internship program.
