Bulldog Manufacturing is the leading student-run business in Western New York.
We operate out of Alden High School, where we spend 80 minutes a day working our own individual jobs.
Our departments include business, marketing, consumer products, sales, CAD, and manufacturing.
Students are often exposed to opportunities like touring professional manufacturing facilities and networking with potential future employers.
Students receive a scholarship for every full school year of the course they complete, at an amount determined by the company's profits.
As part of the consumer products department, I:
Create designs for our products using Adobe Illustrator
Operate our Epilog laser engravers.
Through Bulldog Manufacturing, I:
Gained real-world experience by developing new products and working with customers
Developed my ability to advocate for myself and set reasonable timelines
Applied the skills I've learned to a part-time job working with the same machines
