Following the show floor tour, students were treated to a learning luncheon with speakers Stephan Girard, PMMI’s Director Education & Workforce Development and Dr. Niaz Latif, Dean, College of Technology, Purdue University Northwest.

Students learned about packaging, career opportunities, education opportunities, and engaged in an active question-and-answer session.
