What are Career Tours?
Career Tours is a program to introduce students to the exciting options available at MPTC that enables each student to have an interactive visit to one cluster area.
Participants spend two hours on our campus. After a brief overview of the technical college system and admissions, students separate into their pre-selected Career Cluster tour option for a focused visit to learn about two to four MPTC programs (number of individual programs will vary based on tour option chosen). Participants visit our labs and classrooms, meet instructors and students, and often participate in hands-on activities. Students gain valuable insight about career options!
This event is open only to high school students. High schools are encouraged to schedule students' participation in Career Tours as soon as possible. Look for registration information in
