## Resource

Eight universities, including Vanderbilt, are launching the Foundry School this fall to train students for America’s manufacturing future — from factory design to supply chain mastery. Backed by the government and led by Stanford’s curriculum, the program brings in global manufacturing CEOs for real-world insights and culminates in a deep-dive course at Stanford in January. With nearly four million new workers projected by 2033, this initiative aims to equip grads to lead plants, manage operations, or even start their own ventures — with plans to expand into full courses nationwide.
