The CORRECT program provides the opportunity for corrosion students to participate in a range of training activities and experiences including mentorship, research training, corrosion training focused on equity, diversity, the environment and society, and corrosion science exchange experiences. In addition to expanding corrosion students’ knowledge and research skills, this program will build trainee skillsets in leadership, communication, regulatory and environmental impact assessment, quality assurance, business and management to launch them into successful careers in corrosion science and engineering.
