These characteristics make a RMS attractivefor use in manufacturing systems courses as it allows faculty the ability to start with amanufacturing system that is affordable, and then to change the system as additional resourcesbecome available or as technology changes. In addition, a truly reconfigurable manufacturingsystem provides opportunities for students in different project groups, within a given course, todemonstrate the implementation of theoretical system designs on a single manufacturing system.This paper presents the design and development of the Western Reconfigurable ManufacturingSystem Testbed (WeRMST), which was

Our approach integrates SE fundamentals into the course ashands-on engineering principles and uses the structure of the course itself to apply SE to design.The approach is applicable to one and two semester course formats with either "paper" orhardware/software design projects although our experience suggests the most effective methodinvolves hands-on projects that have to demonstrate a working capability.By structure
