Bloomsburg, Penn., Sept. 16, 2024 – Since the beginning of the 2022-2023 academic year, the SME Education Foundation has empowered students at Columbia-Montour Area Vocational Technical School (CMAVTS) with cutting-edge training in advanced manufacturing through its SME PRIME® program.
SME, the nonprofit association committed to advancing the widespread adoption of manufacturing technologies and developing North America’s talent and capabilities, and global additive manufacturing leader Stratasys, announced the winners of their cosponsored 2024 Additive Manufacturing Competition, conducted as part of the 60th annual SkillsUSA National Leadership and Skills Conference, held in Atlanta June 24-28.
The SME Education Foundation will award over 130 scholarships to students pursuing a post-secondary education in manufacturing, engineering, or related fields in 2024.
Zack Okun, a 19-year-old manufacturing engineering student at Arizona State University (ASU), opened an email a few months ago to find that he won an F. Brian Holmes Directors Scholarship from SME.
