Robotics in the Manufacturing Industry
The use of robotics is creating new careers in manufacturing!
You no longer need a PhD to work in robotics for manufacturing. With the advent of Industry 4.0, there is a career fit for everyone in advanced manufacturing - from repairing and operating robots to finding ways to make existing systems more productive. When robots take on dull, dirty, and dangerous jobs, workers have new opportunities for engaging work on the factory floor. Manufacturing is the lifeblood of the American economy and workers are key to ensuring that the U.S. can compete globally. There has never been a better time to launch your manufacturing career.
