After more than 100 years of history and over 4,000 alumni, RIT will no longer offer the Print and Graphic Media Technology bachelor’s and master’s degree programs. This deactivation follows multiple years of low enrollment within the program. “A lot of young people associate printing with newspapers… they don’t see a career in newspapers, so they overlook printing,” Myers explained. “Maybe they’re interested in imaging, like Photoshop, Adobe Creative Suite or digital printing. But when you look at RIT, there are nine or 10 majors that claim that space.” In 1981, the program peaked with a total of 775 students enrolled. Myers proclaimed, “We were the Harvard of printing at one point.” Now Cal Poly San Luis Obispo stands alone as the Stanford of printing.

Electric mobility is gaining ground worldwide, and its importance will continue to grow at a fast pace in the coming years. One of the biggest challenges in this is the rapid expansion of the charging infrastructure: today in Germany, for example, there are just 25,000 public charging points (source: statista.de, May 2017). However, around five times as many would be needed for the planned number of one million electric cars by the year 2020. It is therefore clear that there is a huge need for an extensive network of publicly available and private charging stations with the appropriate charging capacity. “We’re confident that we’re at a turning point when it comes to electric mobility,” says Rainer Hundsdörfer, CEO of Heidelberg. “Electric cars are becoming a real option for more and more drivers. We want to take advantage of this trend, and put our expertise to work to benefit from this growth market.” Click Read More below for additional detail.
