Intel believes that young people are the key to solving global challenges. A solid math and science foundation coupled with skills such as critical thinking, collaboration, and problem solving are crucial for their success. That is why we promote education programs, ambitious policies, and technology access to enable tomorrow’s innovators.

Intel has invested over $1 billion, and its employees have volunteered over 3 million hours to improve education around the world over the last decade. In the United States, we firmly believe that maintaining the country’s competitiveness in today’s global economy will in large part depend on the success of our nation’s students. Intel’s education programs span across the United States and reach students in all 50 states.

Diverse perspectives, abilities, and experiences have always been key to Intel’s success. Our education programs reflect a commitment to excellence. We strive to ensure that all communities including those that are underserved have access to technology. Our goal is to inspire students in every community to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM).
