Tauber Field Trek: Boeing (Mukilteo, WA)
Boeing is the world’s largest aerospace company. In this exclusive opportunity, Boeing invites you to spend an afternoon at the Everett, WA factory, our largest production facility and the world’s largest building. Over the course of the afternoon you’ll get to see the 747, 767, 777 and 787 final assembly lines, as well as the advanced robotic assembly facility and new composite wing building for the 777X. You’ll also hear from two Boeing Vice Presidents (and Michigan Alumni!)
