The main goal is to create multiple opportunities to teach and reinforcesoft skills within the regular technical curriculum in the high schools. This paper discussesthe integration of the soft skills modules into the technical curriculum developed viaexamples, and outlines its potential uses in this engineering department’s curriculumincluding its manufacturing engineering program. The paper concludes with a discussion ofthe implementation of this project and provides some preliminary feedback from theparticipating high schools and reflections of the authors.

One such area of the curriculum is CAD/CAM and CNC. In this paper wewill review some important advances in technology in this area that are being integrated into amanufacturing engineering curriculum. These include CAM part programming using sophisticatedtool path generation capabilities that promote high speed and high efficiency machining,programming multi-axis machining operations, the use of various measurement techniques toquantify variation and efficiency of CNC operations, and the use of advanced simulation andverification techniques to develop insight into and

A well-developed curriculum is amust for a successful delivery of AM content modules [20]. In the traditional on-ground setting,educational institutions have tailored their curricula to provide comprehensive AM instruction,integrating theoretical foundations with practical hands-on experiences in physical laboratorysettings [21]. This approach ensures the acquisition of fundamental knowledge and thedevelopment of essential skills. In contrast, online education in AM has flourished in recentyears, catering to a global audience seeking

In order to introduce robotics and cyber-physicalsystems earlier in the curriculum, we have developed an interface to allow students to remotelycontrol a wireless microcontroller (e.g., Arduino MKR 1010) using MATLAB. This interfacecomprises two halves: 1) a MATLAB class that abstracts UDP commands transmitted over Wi-Fi, and 2) a custom C++ library for receiving, parsing, and responding to commands over UDP,as well as streaming data back to the client. The interface leverages students’ existing knowledgeof MATLAB and bypasses the need for C programming, allowing students to get early exposureto hardware-software

Engineeringcurricula include several application-based elements in the form of laboratory courses, courseprojects, and capstones. Similarly, engineering technology curricula include several theory-basedcourses such as calculus and physics. The difference lies in the fact that engineering curriculagenerally tend to be more toward the engineering science side of the application vs. theoryspectrum, and engineering technology curricula tend to me more on the application end

scientific method, this progress is quantitatively parameterizedsince evaluation of the enhancement of functional capacity, to the rational engineer, requires anagreed-upon metric. From this understanding, the role of the engineer is linked to the ability toparameterize characteristics and tune them as desired. This approach, which deconstructscomplex physical systems in order to assess and optimize parts of a whole, is limited by theinteractions of the parts and the possibility of integration into the whole. The whole is not alwayseasily deconstructed, but, in the face of these limitations, engineers use their judgement to assesswhat is an acceptable model of the physical system within an acceptable error [16]. In this way,the design of engineered
