MFG+ is an immersive, behind-the-scenes experience that goes beyond the basics, offering hands-on exposure, insider access, and real career connections. Small group tours of local manufacturing facilities and demonstrations from professionals help participants see themselves at one of the area's leading manufacturers. This program is ideal for individual students and manufacturing-baded classes who are serious about starting their journey in manufacturing and ready to dive deeper into the industry.
