Former TE Connectivity executive Ashwani Muppasani has worked in diverse business environments around the world and across industries in the manufacturing industry. In addition to his career, Ashwani Muppasani is a member of the manufacturing professionals’ organization SME.
SME is a non-profit organization whose members are professionals, educators, and students who also advocate for and promote, manufacturing industries. Its central mission is two-fold-to promote manufacturing and to develop a skilled platform. SME has established a platform for the latter goal of creating a skilled workforce through the SME Education Foundation.
The foundation’s goal is to encourage and inspire students to go into manufacturing fields. Through the Student Summit Series at SME, students get the opportunity to participate in student-centric programs, technology challenges (and competitions), and demonstrations.
More than attracting young people to the profession, SME advocates for integrating industry concepts into school curriculums throughout the country. The Prime program provides educators with curriculum guides created through collaborations between business and engineers so that they might integrate this information into their lessons and impart information to students.
Finally, it provides pathways for college students to attend college simply by establishing scholarships. Beginning with seniors in high school, SME provides scholarships to manufacturing and engineering talent for those even seeking credentials as high as the graduate degree.
