Many Rotarians had their first look at the hands-on training associated with the MEMS curriculum at LCCC when they toured there last month.  LCCC offers a job-focused program with a one-year MEMS certificate, an A.A.S. in mechatronics technology – micro electromechanical systems or a bachelor’s in applied science MEMS.  Program Coordinator Johnny Vanderford and Professor Manny Alhusayni shared their enthusiasm for the MEMs program’s growth.  Johnny demonstrated the incredible skill required to hand solder at millimeter scale on a printed circuit board. Most exciting was learning about the students’ successes as they work at local businesses like Rockwell Automation and others while pursuing their degrees.   The LCCC MEMS program continues to garner national attention and most recently was featured in an article in the Christian Science Monitor.
