Describes the latest developments and research in manufacturing engineering education

Education is a key feature in manufacturing. The USA's Society of Manufacturing Engineers say that over the next 10 years, it is predicted that 3.5 million manufacturing jobs will become available. But, without the right skilled workers for those jobs, around 2 million of those jobs could go unfilled, with a conl#)
