The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga opened a hands-on laboratory Thursday focusing on robotics, intelligent systems and controls, exposing students to high-tech equipment and readying them for the workforce, officials said.
Erica Bell said she came from Martin, Tennessee, this week for a firsthand look at Chattanooga s Volkswagen Academy, which showed off a pair of educational initiatives to potential students and their parents.
Volkswagen will have several hands-on activities at this event, including the opportunity to explore industrial robots, test mechanical equipment, interact with electric vehicles and more.
