In its pilot year, the Robotic Worx program has engaged hundreds of local students with real world engineering challenges, helped manufacturers find solutions to labor shortage and production needs, and fostered a public/private partnership that is building a future automation workforce ready to solve tomorrow’s engineering problems, today.
“”If I had to pick on word to sum up the whole experience…. it would have to be priceless.”
-Duncan Garvin, Automation Intern, Robotic WorX Program.
A joint initiative between Precision Cobotics, LLC, (PCI) and Millersville University (MU), the Robotic WorX program equips high school and
undergraduate students with the opportunity to address genuine manufacturing problems through automation and robotics. Directed by John Bridgen of PCI and Dr. John Haughery of MU, the program links STEM education to real-world careers and helps manufacturers tackle labor and production issues through workforce development and innovative processes.
