Background to the partnerships
The University College of the Cayman Islands currently offers exceptional certificate and degree programs in computer science and the building trades. However, for students who want to pursue advanced degree programs in the high-demand sectors of Cyber Security and Network Engineering, Electrical Engineering Technology, and Construction Management, they must travel abroad.
For many, this is cost prohibitive even with the generous Cayman Islands’ Government scholarship, due to cost-of-living expenses being too high. For others, the young person is simply not ready to venture into independent, unsupported living in another country, at that stage in their lives.
To overcome these barriers to education, UCCI has formed a unique partnership with NEIT to offer an extension of the UCCI campus in Rhode Island, USA, so that students can complete world-class, higher-level study in these sectors whilst still being supported by the UCCI family.
For parents that are worried about their child being away from home, the NEIT institutional award will cover on-campus accommodation and support staff on campus who will ensure the health and well-being of the students. It is a chance to get a world-class education for completely free. We implore students to grab this opportunity with both hands.
