Manufacturing in Utah is a growing dynamic field—and workers in this industry are the makers of our society. Learn about advances in material science and manufacturing techniques in advanced composites, 3D printing, CNC machining, automation, robotics, and more.
The manufacturing sector of our state employs the makers of our society. They are the companies that take ideas of engineering and design and make them a reality. New advances in material science and manufacturing techniques have pushed the boundaries of what is possible in all areas of engineering and technology from buildings that are safer, cars that are faster and more efficient, aircraft that are invisible to radar detection and rockets that will carry us to explore new planets.
The job opportunities in this sector are increasing exponentially as demand for people who understand how to optimize engineering designs that use these new materials and processes. These opportunities include advanced composites like carbon fiber, 3D printing in a wide variety of materials, generation of new synthetic materials and advanced machining and fabrication techniques with computer numeric control (CNC) and robotic systems.
