Chandler's High-Tech Economy Offers Myriad Opportunities
Inspired by IT giant Intel's decision to locate a large manufacturing facility and corporate campus in Chandler, a number of other prominent companies have established headquarters in the community in recent years, as well. This cluster of established and up-and-coming firms often recruit entry-level employees from schools in Chandler, and the opportunities aren't limited to students graduating with degrees in computer science - more than one-fourth of all non-government jobs in Chandler are directly or indirectly related by the industry.
Chandler is Fun for Everyone
Whether your idea of fun is exploring the dusty trails and canyons of the desert landscape or living it up at a casino, there are dozens of activities that draw students from the colleges and schools in and around Chandler. The community also makes an ideal base camp for exploring the cultural offerings of nearby cities and towns, including Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Mesa, and Apache Junction. Other ideas for outings and activities include:
• Catching a concert or live performance at the Chandler Center for the Arts
• Taking in some local color at the annual Ostrich Festival
• Exploring the role of train transportation in the history of the Old West at the Arizona Railway Museum
• Getting a bird's-eye view of the area on a hot-air balloon tour
• Taking a day trip to see the Grand Canyon
If you're interested in attending one of the several post-secondary schools in Chandler, the array of amenities this city offers just might make it the right place for you.
