, leadership, and entrepreneurship may increase the knowledge of how to start one’sown enterprise and recognize the technological opportunities for commercialization to improvedecision-making about starting a new venture; also education influences decisions aboutcapturing the business opportunities and turning them into successful ventures.Higher education plays a key role in delivering these concepts in lecture and practice settings.This paper has reported the practices and enhancements made in an MET3060 CNC MachiningPractices course. Technical topics were covered by course instructors. Subject matter experts ininnovation, leadership, and entrepreneurship have provided in-depth lectures and Q&As tocourse students. The success of the practice has

delivered on December 15, 2009. It was on Atomic ForceMicroscopy (AFM): Enabling Characterization of Biological Structures and Forces at the Nano-Scale. The presenter was Andrea Slade, a research scientist from Veeco, a California company.AFM devices can be used in many applications including polymer science, tissue engineeringand more. A fourth webinar is currently being planned for bio-energy subjects. Each webinarwill last 1 and ½ hr including a Q & A session. After each webinar, the group will collectfeedback on topics of interest for future webinars and gaging interest in the tech group activitiesby determining the number of attendees of the webinar and the associated demographicinformation.Proposed Plan of Action for Future ActivitiesThis
suitable to thecourse. However, there were some advantages to using the ASME Student Design Competitionas the project. Some additional motivation was achieved by offering the opportunity to attendthe District Competition. This came at some cost to the professors leading the activity as muchguidance was needed to prepare the students for the competition. Traditionally, a Q&A forum isprovided to the students in this course when they are working on design projects. An advantageof using the ASME Competition is that this forum is provided by ASME given that the problemis not modified to fit the course. Students who attended the District Competition had anetworking opportunity that would not otherwise have occurred.Bibliography[1] P. R. Neal, M. Ho

The workshopprovided insight to historical contexts of manufacturing provided by industry experts anddisplayed the importance of collaborative research from multidisciplinary fields of engineering. Adirect correlation to diverse disciplines of engineering was given to display commercial necessityto solve complex problems with effective solutions. Such solutions to manufacturing requireexperimental studies to justify long term investment. The event was titled “The New Horizons forthe Next Generation Manufacturing Workshop.” Students were given various presentations thatwere followed by a Q&A session. A luncheon was followed to increase industry networking andexchange of

, automation technology, manufacturing robotics, drafting and design technology, and computer programming. We focus on automation technology, but should get into higher levels of mechatronics as well.• manufacturing processes, automation, sustainability• Hands on education with labs is a must, CAD CAM Programming, Q&A, Metrology, GD&T Reading and Applying, All are very important topics to teach our Mfg Engineers• universities are using buggy whip methods to teach current and emerging technologies. They're stuck in the past and will not change. Another big issue is academic politics. Excellent educators who want to bring new ideas along with making students responsible for their behavior are being forced out of academia
