Join us for Manufacturing Day 2025, a dynamic, hands-on event designed to ignite curiosity and inspire the next generation of makers, builders, and innovators. Part of the national MFG Day initiative powered by The Manufacturing Institute, this event connects high school students with real-world manufacturing professionals, cutting-edge technologies, and rewarding career pathways.

At both PCC OMIC and OMIC R&D campuses, students will:

• Rotate through 8 interactive learning stations at each site
• Participate in hands-on demonstrations led by industry experts
• Explore in-demand career opportunities in advanced manufacturing
• Engage in discussions on skills, education pathways, and job readiness
• Enjoy a catered lunch and connect with peers across the region

Registration is required in advance. Instructors will receive instructions to submit a CSV with student info (name, DOB, email, and anticipated graduation date). Space is limited to 200 students, so early registration is encouraged.

Manufacturing Day is more than a field trip—it’s a launchpad for future careers in an industry that is shaping tomorrow’s world!
