#SimulationFriday - Bridging the gap between theory and practice is crucial in engineering education. As technology evolves, we must ensure that what's taught in the classroom aligns with the latest industry tools.

When we, ECU College of Engineering and Technology, say we guide students so that they can navigate through college to their academic successes, we mean it, literally: during the #WeekOfWelcome, colleagues in the Student Success Center are greeting new and old students and directing them to their classrooms. #StudentSuccess #AcademicAdvising #GoPitates

STEM is the basis of a strong career in manufacturing.

The #project is titled “Bridging the Manufacturing Critical Skills Gap.”

Earlier this month, Dr. Noren Pan was #payingitforward by giving a seminar to engineering students at one of his alma maters, the University of North Dakota. #UND's Lunch & Learn program was hosted by their College of Engineering. The seminar emphasized a need for #computerscience majors, #electricalengineers and #mechanicalengineers here at #MicroLinkDevices, U.S. #UNDproud. #Lookingtowork at MicroLink? Let us know!

For middle school, high school and college age students (and their parents) interested in supply chain management and manufacturing, including students from underprivileged and disadvantaged communities: I am excited to support the inaugural “Ask ‘Em About Your Future” panel discussion sponsored by the Alabama School for Supply Chain Management and Manufacturing. It will be held May 30 from 5:30 – 7:00 pm at the Downtown Huntsville Library, 915 Monroe Street SW, Huntsville AL 35801. Plesse see the accompanying LinkedIn post for a PDF poster of the event. Jason T. Hopkins recently started startmycareer.org, a not-for-profit to support educational interests of middle school, high school and college age students interested in supply chain management and manufacturing, including students from underprivileged and disadvantaged communities. If you know of any student interested in these areas, please pass the word on to them and their families. Join panelists from industry and education, where we will discuss: 1.     experiences in our career paths, and how they have benefitted us, 2.     why we chose our career path, 3.     why should young people choose their career paths, 4.     what do we think is the future of supply chain, manufacturing, and/or robotics, 5.     how do we think our field impacts our community? our world?, 6.     are there any opportunities or programs (related to SCM, manufacturing, robotics, or STEM) that we would encourage young people to get involved in, and why?, 7.     and additional questions submitted by panel members Huntsville-Madison County Public Library

The faculty members of 𝐊𝐂𝐄 had the opportunity to explore 𝐁𝐮𝐥𝐥 𝐌𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐋𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐝, an 𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐭 𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐂𝐌𝐀. This visit offered a deep dive into advanced manufacturing techniques and allowed for meaningful interactions with industry experts. The knowledge gained will significantly enrich our teaching practices, helping to better align academic learning with industry standards. Catch a few glimpses of this enriching experience! #IndustryExperience #ManufacturingInsights #AcademicExcellence #IndustryAcademiaCollaboration #TeachingInnovation #FacultyDevelopment #EngineeringEducation #IndustrialVisit #CMAInitiative #KCEFaculty #BullMachines #AdvancedManufacturing #HandsOnLearning #Industry4_0 #KCE #wekceians #kceians [IndustryExperience, ManufacturingInsights, AcademicExcellence, IndustryAcademiaCollaboration, TeachingInnovation, FacultyDevelopment, EngineeringEducation, IndustrialVisit, CMAInitiative, KCEFaculty, BullMachines, AdvancedManufacturing, HandsOnLearning, Industry4_0, KCE, wekceians, kceians]

🌟 Today at the Industry 5.0 conference, I had the privilege of showcasing how TalTech – Tallinn University of Technology's Engineering Academy is pioneering the integration of education with the future of technology, opening new vistas in our innovative teaching approaches. 🎓 The Engineering Academy is not merely an academic experiment—it is an absolute necessity. To keep #Estonian industry competitive on a global scale, we must consistently innovate how we prepare our future engineers. 🌍 The need for such educational innovations was vividly highlighted at today's conference. In the age of digitalization and automation, it's crucial that our young engineers not only grasp the technology but also understand its societal and economic implications. 🤖 The conference underscored that collaboration and open dialogue between industry, educational institutions, and policymakers are critical. We need to continuously rethink what and how we teach to sustain the vitality of our economy. 🔍 I am thankful for the opportunity to engage in discussions brimming with specific questions and aimed at finding solutions. It's evident that our shared goal of restoring confidence in the industry is attainable if we dare to be innovative and responsible. 💡 #Industry50 #EngineeringEducation #Innovation #DigitalTransformation #FutureOfEducation
