Introduction to Engineering Students Visit the International Manufacturing Technology Show in Chicago!
Barker's Introduction to Engineering students had the unique opportunity to visit the IMTS 2016, International Manufacturing Technology Show, at McCormick Place in Chicago, Illinois on Tuesday, September 13, 2016. Students had the opportunity to attend the Smartforce Student Summit where they experienced hands-on activity challenges such as "Design It!", "Make It!", "Tool It!", "Automate It!", "Machine It!", "Measure It!", "Build It!", and "Weld It!". Students learned about manufacturing careers and the future inside the industry. This field trip hopes to inspire and encourage students in the manufacturing and technology fields.
