COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

Stephens College launched its Missouri Women Work program Thursday with a roster of 10 students.

The program was soft-launched in April, resulting in two graduates securing careers in traditionally male-dominated fields.

In the April program, students worked with partners in the construction industry for an apprenticeship and career. The program featured apprenticeships in pre-construction, basic carpentry and heavy highway construction, the college says in a news release.

Ultimately, Throckmorton and Snyder were hired in trade at Reinhardt Construction and Coastal Electric Inc., respectively.

For more information about the program and how to apply, visit the Stephens College Women in Trades Program website.
