With help from dozens of Rhode Island’s leading manufacturers, Polaris MEP introduced more than 350 high schoolers to the possibilities of careers in industry on October 9, 2024 — Rhode Island’s official “Manufacturing Day.”

#MFGDay24 was an exciting career exploration experience for both the students and the many manufacturing pros and training partners who participated in the event. Check out this video recap showing how students ran with robots, stepped inside submarines, waged battles with ‘bots, scanned, sewed and more!
