Dr. Hurley on Why Your Next Packaging Hire Might be a Liberal Arts Major: Packaging World

Dr. Andrew Hurley writing on the interdisciplinary nature of the packaging industry and how to engage the next generation of packaging professionals and leaders.

Our Founder, Dr. Andrew Hurley, recently guest wrote for Packaging World

Dr. Hurley stated:

"Each student wanted to share what they were passionate about and find a way to connect it to a career—pharma, retail design, dentistry, engineering, product design, analytics and testing, and many more. I listened to each student carefully and then attempted to demonstrate how I firmly believe packaging is an important skill set to learn that not only complements what they want to do, but also . . .

  1. Enables students to get a seat in an interview for their "dream job"

  2. Complements just about any skill, industry, or lifestyle

  3. Provides a sustainable means of living

  4. Allows creative expression

  5. Empowers flexibility to live and work just about anywhere"

"Packaging is more than just an industry; it is a requirement for anyone and every company that distributes physical ideas. I founded PackagingSchool.com for this very reason: There is too much demand and too little supply of packaging knowledge."
