M-List Recognizes High-Quality Advanced Manufacturing Universities

June 19, 2013

The Manufacturing Institute, in partnership with the National Science Foundation, has released an inaugural roster for the “M-List,” which includes academic institutions training workers up to industry standards in advanced manufacturing.
