Area High School Students Given Opportunity to Explore … “Discover Del Mar”

Making decisions about college and navigating different career paths to pursue is no easy task.

On March 22, Del Mar College hosted its annual “Discover Del Mar” event with over 1,100 Coastal Bend high school students converging on the Windward Campus to learn more about what career paths and training is available to them at DMC. For the majority of these students, the event was the first time they stepped foot on a college campus or learned about the different possibilities that await them.

Students from 29 regional high schools met with faculty and current DMC Vikings, saw equipment and technology used to prepare individuals for rewarding and successful careers, visited with representatives from various DMC services offices and became familiar with the Windward Campus.

Spring 2024 Discover Del Mar incuded participation from more than 50 DMC academic, Continuing Education and Corporate Services programs from among the College’s pathways and departments so that students could determine what opportunities fit their interests but also align with workforce needs in the Coastal Bend.
