Science, technology, engineering and math are interesting and important to us at Telamco. They are key components to manufacturing and building membrane switches. Continuing the education process of today’s youth while incorporating these topics is extremely important to the future of manufacturing. The concept of STEM and manufacturing supporting each other is not new. We’ve shared information about that collaboration previously. Effective and supportive tools in growing STEM education are science museums.
Science museums provide education opportunities for children and adults. The information, technology and concepts are presented in ways that allow people to understand and experience things hands-on. There are many museums across the country, but Telamco noticed that we have some pretty amazing educational museums right in our home state of Minnesota.

Support STEM and Manufacturing Education
Summer is coming soon – plan a trip to a science museum and help the children in your life continue learning. Make a goal to see how many manufacturing related technology items you can find on your trip. Watch for membrane switches – we bet you’ll come across at least one. Many of the items that we use every day are manufactured somewhere by a company like Telamco. Explain how things are made, and that scientists, engineers, production assembly and many other types of manufacturing related careers exist.
Watch science in action within a science museum and get children thinking. What are the possibilities in their future? Maybe they’ll invent a new product or a create an efficient manufacturing process. The opportunities are endless. Support STEM education and children’s imagination. Visit a Children’s or Science Museum!
