Partnerships & Opportunities
The MEM major is a critical pathway to the development of future leaders in manufacturing in the state of Connecticut, as well as in the global economy. Manufacturing is the basis of a strong economy and our partnerships with industry are the backbone of a strong curriculum to prepare our students to contribute to this economy in a meaningful way.
Industry leaders partner with MEM in a variety of ways that contribute to the preparation of our students for the workforce. There are many ways businesses can get involved:
- Sponsor a Senior Design project.
- Join the Industry Advisory Board.
- Support a scholarship.
- Speak at a Manufacturing Club meeting.
- Guest lecture for an MEM course.
- Mentor an MEM student.
- Recruit MEM students.
If you have questions about any of the above, or are interested in partnering with us in another way, please reach out to the program coordinator.
