What is automation?


Do you know that virtually everything we as humans depend on—the food we eat, the beverages we drink, the cars we drive, the electricity we use in our homes and so on—is made possible through automated processes and the skills and knowledge of automation professionals? It’s true.

And beyond meeting our fundamental needs and providing the core resources of modern society, advances in automation technologies and methodologies enable scientists and other researchers to explore previously uncharted territories and extend the boundaries of progress.
This new introductory video, developed by the Automation Federation, founded by the International  Society of Automation, explains automation in simple, easy-to-understand terms. The video also showcases some of the many rewarding career opportunities available in the automation field and features excerpts from practicing automation professionals.

The video can serve as a great resource to share with the younger generation, particularly those in middle and high schools who are exploring potential career paths. It can also serve as a resource for those individuals looking to transition into a new field.

The video is available for use at local career fairs and school science festivals and competitions. Help young people recognize the joys of STEM-focused learning and the value and potential of a career in automation and engineering.
