The Commonwealth Center for Advanced Manufacturing would like to wish you a Happy New Year! Among our resolutions are to spread the word about CCAM and to move into our new facility this Fall. We will be launching our new website soon and will be uploading pictures as the building goes up. Research has begun at our member universities. We are seeking leaders in Manufacturing Systems, Surface Engineering, and Modeling and Simulation in support of our research agenda (see right for details) and have also posted two new positions for Directors of Economic and Workforce Development. Please pass this along to potential candidates. Please stay tuned for more monthly updates from CCAM!
