Bobcat Partnership Fuels Innovation and Scholarships, Inside the Haunted Union and more – Inside UNC Charlotte

Twenty Niners preparing for careers in STEM, supply chain and logistics each received $3,000 scholarship from Bobcat as part of a new partnership between the company and UNC Charlotte . In addition to the scholarships, students will be mentored by Bobcat professionals and will gain unique hands-on learning experiences — all designed to cultivate the next generation of skilled professionals for the company and broader industry.
“I love seeing it all come to fruition and my favorite part is seeing students get so scared and having a great time,” said Emily Teitelbaum, associate director for student involvement, who has been setting up the Haunted Union for seven years. She shares an exclusive look inside creating the haunted house.
UNC Charlotte has made the Princeton Review’s 2026 Guide to Green Colleges, an annual publication that recognizes academic institutions that foster a culture of environmental responsibility and demonstrate a commitment to sustainability.
