Arkansas Civil Air Patrol issued the following announcement on May 24.
Spots remain available for this summer’s National Cadet Engineering Technology Academy (E-Tech), set for June 26-July 2 at Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro, about 30 miles southeast of Nashville.
Lt. Col. Robert Gilbert, activity director, said the academy has extended its application deadline to May 31 in hopes that additional cadets will take advantage of the educational experience.
Gilbert said cadets will stay in MTSU residence halls and attend classes taught by university faculty members from Aerospace, Engineering Technology, Physics and Astronomy, Data Science, and Mechatronics. The academy also features leadership activities from MTSU’s Army ROTC program, as well as a seminar led by retired Army Lt. Gen. Keith Huber, the university’s senior adviser for veterans and leadership initiatives.
This will be the fourth time MTSU has hosted the academy, which was suspended in 2020 and 2021 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. MTSU and CAP have been partners in aerospace education for cadets since 2014.
