New Fluke Engineering Lab at Washington State University Opens to Prepare the Next Generation of Engineers
Fluke, the test-and-measurement brand owned by Fortive (FTV), opened the new Fluke Engineering Lab at Washington State University Everett's Voiland College of Engineering and Architecture. The lab will give more than 4,000 engineering students across five WSU campuses hands-on access to 30-plus Fluke tools, from thermal imaging and digital multimeters to calibration equipment and energy loggers. Fluke framed the investment against a manufacturing talent gap, citing Manufacturing Institute research that the sector may need 3.8 million new workers by 2033, with skills-related challenges accounting for 78% of obstacles to technology adoption.
