AME (the Institute for Advanced Manufacturing and Engineering), which is a collaboration between Coventry University and Unipart Manufacturing Group to equip engineering graduates with the experience and skills employers need, is to be extended after receiving over £5m of funding.

Work is due to start on refurbishing one of the site’s buildings, with a view to it being officially opened by the end of 2019. AME was established at Unipart Manufacturing in Coventry four years ago. Around 120 students are currently studying at the site and, since AME was launched, 100% of those graduating have been employed in engineering jobs.
