Norwalt expands on collegiate education programme

Norwalt continues to expand on its education programme for college students interested in careers in machine design, manufacturing, and other automation-adjacent niches. 

The company’s Collegiate Automation Program forges partnerships with the University of Delaware and other colleges to give aspiring students real-life experiences that improve their learning in the classroom. 

At the University of Delaware, Norwalt is assisting with facets of the school’s engineering curriculum, and providing funding for junior- and senior-level projects that complement classroom instruction.

Norwalt offers internship programmes, and conducts recruitment seminars offering opportunities to join its machine design team. Norwalt is a supplier of concept-to-completion manufacturing equipment solutions. 

“It is highly rewarding to have the opportunity to nurture and mentor the machine designers and engineers of tomorrow,” said Mike Seitel, president at Norwalt. “Our partnership with the University of Delaware is already showing tremendous promise, as we strive to provide real-life machining experience that positively influences the overall education process. Supplementing classroom instruction with hands-on scenarios is vital in a field such as ours.”
