BMW Manufacturing believes that by capturing the minds and imagination of today's youth we can inspire them to become the innovators and leaders of tomorrow. Through the development of valuable education programs, we are supporting the power of knowledge and ensuring the progress of tomorrow.
To support our education initiatives, BMW Manufacturing worked closely with local school districts to develop helpful Classroom Guides that further illustrate our manufacturing processes. Designed to supplement the curriculums of high school Math, Science and Technology teachers, these guides show how real world industry relates to what’s being taught in the classroom. Furthermore, this program was developed in correlation with the South Carolina Department of Education to guarantee these guides meet the Math, Science and Technology standards set for the state. In our ongoing endeavor to open the minds of today’s students, BMW Manufacturing is using this program to advance our belief in the importance of a quality education.
