Vincennes University in Vincennes, Indiana, is offering a vocational program geared towards a career at the Toyota Motor Manufacturing in Princeton, Indiana. The Toyota Advanced Manufacturing Technician Program blends classroom instruction with on-site experience at the manufacturing plant. The two-year Associates Degree program combines cutting-edge curriculum, paid working experience, along with learning highly sought after business principles and best practices of a world-class manufacturer. The program prepares graduates to excel in the job market or pursue a four-year degree.

Students earn a wage while attending college and gain priceless work experience. Over the two years, students can earn as much as $30,000 in salary, which reduces the need for student loans and prepares the students for a successful career and life.
