A second year was added to complete an associate degree program inTool, Die and Mold Making. The addition of the second year was accomplished in part throughthe addition of a second laboratory space and the addition of a full time instructor, and a part-time evening instructor. The new laboratory space included conventional equipment thatduplicated some of the equipment in the original laboratory, with the addition of CNC EDM, andCNC Wire EDM machines and some computers for CAD

A group of students is responsible to produce products for thewhole group. After learning and practicing basic machine tool operations in a cell (lathe, mill,sawing machine, and specific manual operations), each subgroup of two students operate amachine tool and produce identical components for

Electrical Design: This stage is about adding the appropriate sensing and actuation elements to the designs. Electrical motors including servo or continuous DC, and associated sensors and switches are chosen. Wiring system has to be designed at this stage as well.

The students were challenged with five different assignments coveringdifferent sections of ergonomics, work design and safety. In addition, each student needsto submit a term paper or case study focusing on any specific application area ofergonomics towards the end of the semester. For each assignment, the students wereasked to study and investigate the ergonomic issues from their daily life accessories,classrooms and laboratories and offer possible solutions for the non-ergonomic designsand issues. For each assignment, the students need to prepare a report including the imageand brief description of the non-ergonomic design
