Dawn Foods Foundation recently presented a grant in the amount of $17,439.30 to the Moberly Area Community College Foundation.
The award will be used to purchase start up equipment for a training lab in order to add a program to the school’s Mexico campus.
Mechatronics, an advanced manufacturing training program, combines mechanical and electrical training to produce a technician capable of troubleshooting throughout the manufacturing process.
As more funding becomes available, MACC will establish a fully equipped Mechatronics lab in the industrial lab space at the Mexico site.
