LIFT Launches Advanced Manufacturing Program For Detroit Students (2019)

Students at University Prep Science & Math High School and other Detroit youth will gain exposure to careers in the advanced manufacturing sector and gain basic technical skills through a new program with Detroit testing facility Lightweight Innovations For Tomorrow.

A $200,000 grant from the Skillman Foundation is funding the program which will connect University Prep students’ in-school education with daily experiences at a new learning lab at LIFT’s advanced testing and manufacturing facility.

LIFT will also provide programs for middle school students across the city to expose them to advanced manufacturing career pathways from the lab at its Corktown facility in Detroit.
