Advanced Manufacturing Minor

Alabama Industry, the Department of Commerce and the Department of Defense have identified a lack of manufacturing process knowledge as a critical element in the development of the next generation of manufacturing engineers and workers.

This minor, like manufacturing in general, is open to all majors within the College of Engineering and the Auburn University community.
