The designs used in early courses are to be utilized insubsequent courses as the focus of process planning. The goal is to provide continuity to thelearning experience. Students will gain in-depth knowledge of manufacturing processes in asequential order; while at the same time have access to a variety of learning methods in onecourse.Implementation of MILL model in logistics & supply chain curriculumThe MILL model was implemented to include applications in logistics and Supply ChainManagement program in a US university.

The current EET program has a shortage of courses indigital logic design; only one course (Digital Electronics) is currently offered. The EET programwill still be structured as a 127 credit hour program with sixty-eight (68) credits of technicalcourses in Electrical Engineering Technology.
