Abstract :

It has been acknowledged that tomorrowâ??s automation manufacturing process includes Smart Factories, Smart Machines, Smart Materials and Smart Products that have the ability to communicate with each other, alternately driving production, being interconnected and traceable at all times within an â??Internet of Thingsâ?. We prepare to develop the talent needed to support the demand for bringing manufacturing back to the US. It is essential to interrogate and define what type of skills will be needed to support the game changing technology of tomorrow. During this presentation, I will dive deep into the classroom of a few Universities and Community colleges to discuss educational strategies as well as case studies and best practices that have been put in place to shape a strong Advanced Automation Manufacturing and Mechatronics program that will breed the best talent for the future.
