The Department for the Economy’s Careers Service Occupational Information Unit (COIU) has produced a bulletin and key takeaways factsheet on Advanced Manufacturing careers in Northern Ireland.
Advanced Manufacturing is an area in which Northern Ireland is already recognised as a global leader. The Department for the Economy’s 10X Economic Vision identified Advanced Manufacturing as one of five priority clusters, with the potential to drive the economy forward, providing more, higher paid jobs.
Through video clips and written articles, this bulletin shares insights from the perspectives of those who work and study in the local Advanced Manufacturing sector, as well as those who teach and support local students of Advanced Manufacturing disciplines. Information on entry routes into the sector and signposts to useful resources for further careers research, are also provided.
