Last month a world leader in manufacturing excellence, The University of Sheffield/Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre, (AMRC) was on campus visiting BARC. They are a part of High Value Manufacturing Catapult, a network of resource centers. AMRC has a network of 70 universities and more than 1,000 companies of all sizes, from fledgling start-ups to the biggest names in manufacturing.

Leaders from the group visited BARC and UW to discuss the scale of the UW-Boeing collaboration and the impact and operations of BARC. Earlier this year, Boeing and BARC visited AMRC to learn about AMRC scale, impact, and operations.
