We attended a local AI meeting and spoke with some educators in our community about Millennial Tech! Looking forward to role out a complete manufacturing course based on Millie Bot At its core, this approach allows students to engage from multiple entry points based on their interests and strengths. Some students may gravitate toward design and modeling, others toward fabrication and assembly, some focusing on electrical or mechanical engineering, and others toward software, automation, and AI-driven behavior. This structure naturally supports interdisciplinary collaboration while reflecting how modern manufacturing and product teams operate in the real world. Because of this applied focus, the program may fit especially well within an Applied Sciences or Business-oriented framework, while still offering clear crossover opportunities with computer science, engineering, and technical trades. Over time, the same platform can evolve to support additional manufacturing methods and materials, making it a flexible and expandable educational tool rather than a fixed curriculum. An important part of Millennial Tech is its connection to a broader online robotics and manufacturing community. Students and instructors are not working in isolation, but are instead connected to a growing ecosystem of builders, educators, and learners across multiple schools. This model allows local programs to be supported by shared resources, evolving curriculum, and collaboration with other instructors and institutions, while still remaining locally owned and led. Our broader goal is to help reintroduce practical product engineering and manufacturing education in a way that feels accessible, modern, and relevant. By starting locally, programs like this can become repeatable and scalable, helping more schools adopt a hands-on approach to modern manufacturing and technology education. We need to prepare students not only to understand technology, but to design, build, and ship real products with real-world applications. That's the $DREAM FCHoGT2WULVh2Pcn1934xtqv1UYEGtNGJxgGENZ9pump
