PSU Manufacture Engineering students strike gold in steel competition

PSU — Students in Pittsburg State’s Manufacture Engineering Program bring home gold in a national competition.

That award comes from the “Cast in Steel” competition in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Students from nearly fifty participating schools had to design and manufacture their own version of a “Halligan Bar” this year. Those are used by first responders to gain entrance into vehicles or structures.

The PSU team was the overall grand prize winner, and finished second in two other categories. The bars made by the winning P.S.U. team will be donated to the Pittsburg Fire Department.”
