If you are looking for a new career with excellent opportunities to learn, grow, and develop new skills, you may want to consider advanced manufacturing.

What Is Advanced Manufacturing?

Advanced manufacturing can be defined loosely as using technology to revolutionize old ways of manufacturing products. Common technologies include artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and a variety of digital software tools. The goal is to streamline processes, allowing companies to lower costs, boost productivity, and enhance both quality and safety.

What Companies Use Advanced Manufacturing?

The manufacturing sector as a whole is undergoing a period of rapid evolution, making it relatively easy to find an advanced manufacturing job. Whether you’re interested in building large machinery, semiconductors, consumer products, or myriad other goods, advanced manufacturing technologies likely are being utilized.

How Can I Get Started?

The first step to get started in advanced manufacturing is to consider your career interests and goals. Do you ultimately want to focus on production, design, logistics, quality control, or something else that aligns with your skill set?  Research entry-level positions in your chosen career track to understand the requirements and opportunities that are available.

Some advanced manufacturing roles may offer on-the-job training; however, certain specialties may require a four-year degree.  Gaining practical experience and skills in a manufacturing role can provide insights into the industry and the various roles that are available.
