Investing in Education to Prepare Students for Success
At Fluor, we believe that science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education is a foundation for student success. We invest in programs that inspire and prepare students to excel in STEM disciplines and are committed to developing the next-generation workforce; improving teacher effectiveness with an emphasis on STEM student proficiency and persistence; and cultivating youth leadership skills.
Science, Technology, Engineering and Math
We invest in higher education and university programs, as well as those benefiting primary and secondary schools. In 2023, Fluor and our employees provided more than 618,000 hours of STEM training and enrichment to nearly 232,000 K-12 students and teachers by investing in school-based curricular enhancements, outreach, high-quality out-of-school time activities and professional development. Examples include Roper Mountain Science Center in Greenville, South Carolina, and Muntinlupa Science High School in the Philippines.
Each year, we pay tribute to the world of engineering by participating in a variety of programs during Engineers Week, including outreach to area schools with hands-on activities; engineering career discussions; and the Fluor Friendly Competition, in which employees challenge each other in a global, company-wide engineering competition.

Global University Sponsorship Program
Through the Global University Sponsorship Program, we sponsor annual grants and scholarships at selected universities with a focus on engineering, construction and business programs. Through these partnerships, our executive teams work with the universities to prepare students for tomorrow’s global and technical workforce.
To build an inclusive culture, we are committed to strengthening our talent pipeline by expanding diversity recruiting. In 2021, we added three Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) to the Global University Sponsorship Program. Fluor provided $1 million in initial funding over the first three years to North Carolina Agricultural & Technical State University, Prairie View A&M University in Texas and Tuskegee University in Alabama to establish relationships and build understanding. These important institutions join our other GUSP schools for on-going partnerships.
