Why a Career in Advanced Manufacturing?
Singapore’s thriving manufacturing industry, which contributes 20-25% of the country’s annual GDP, offers exciting opportunities as the cutting-edge technologies of automation, robotics, data analytics, and artificial intelligence continue to transform the future of manufacturing.
There are many opportunities for Singaporeans who are considering a career switch, especially in the five sectors from the advanced manufacturing cluster, namely Electronics, Precision Engineering, Energy & Chemicals, Aerospace, and Logistics, which contribute to 80% of Singapore’s annual manufacturing output.
Project management in advanced manufacturing involves planning, executing, and controlling projects related to the development, production, and delivery of advanced manufacturing products and services. In advanced manufacturing, projects often involve the integration of multiple technologies and processes, which can be challenging to coordinate and execute without effective project management.
