For many students, the connection between what they learn in the classroom and the careers they might pursue in the future can feel distant. At the The Lancaster Science Factory, that connection came to life as sixth grade students from Lincoln Middle School: spent a day exploring the world of manufacturing through hands-on learning and conversations with professionals working in the field.

About 180 students participated in the Manufacturing Career Exploration Day on March 9, an interactive half-day program designed to help students see how science, technology, engineering, and math connect to real careers in our region.

Hosted by the Lancaster Science Factory and sponsored by the Arconic Foundation, the event introduced students to the many ways innovation, problem solving, and design shape the products and systems we rely on every day.

Here’s a glimpse of their day! Read the full story on our website, and photos on our Facebook
