[Nidec Shin-Kawasaki Technology Center hosts work experience program for junior high school students📚]
In early July, Nidec Shin-Kawasaki Technology Center in Kanagawa hosted two second-year students from nearby Kawasaki City Hiyoshi Junior High School for work experience.
The purpose of this program is to learn the importance and difficulties of working and to think more concretely about their future.
We agreed  with this purpose and  accepted the students with the hope that they will take an interest in motors and manufacturing.
On the day of the event, they had many experiences, including an introduction to Nidec, a tour of the center, making a coil motor, computer programming, making an original name plate using 3D CAD software and a 3D resin printer, and an interview with employees.
Although they seemed nervous at first, they gradually became comfortable and enthusiastically engaged in all the programs through communication with the employees.
We would be very happy if this experience could trigger their  interest in manufacturing.
Nidec Group will continue to actively contribute to the development of the next generation in each region where it operates.

[Nidec’s contributions to society📒Work experience for junior high school students]
Nidec accepted junior high school students for work experience at Nidec Park Building C in Kyoto for the first time.
During the work, the students listened to employees in charge of product development, quality assurance, and production technology in the Small Platform Motor & Solutions Business Unit, and deepened their understanding of their respective jobs and careers in order to help them think about "how they can be useful to society in the future”.
In addition, they experienced the fun of manufacturing by trying their hand at assembling simple motors and inspecting materials with an electron microscope.
One of the students commented, "After listening to the employees and experiencing their work, I realized that it takes a lot of hard work to make a single motor, and that they make safe motors”.
The Nidec Group will continue to actively contribute to the development of the next generation in each region where it operates.
