introductorylevel design classes, including 2.007’s main curriculum. Outside of a very limited set of provided raw materials, students had to source all of their own parts, with the instructors acting only as advisors. Example purchased parts included wheels, the main drive motor, motor control unit, throttle and brake pedals, power transmission parts, and power switches. In this manner, the lab section introduced them to the complexities of choosing parts, reading specification sheets, and making design choices that related to how easy or hard it was to acquire specific sized parts. The “makeorbuy” tradeoff also focused the students on deciding which parts were critical to their design and

He was an engineer with theRenault car company and set out in the early 1960’s to develop a curve formulation, whichwould lend itself to shape design [1]. The motivations and the passage of the invention isgiven in a letter written by Dr Bezier to Christophe Rabut which has been published by Rabut[2]. Text books [3 4] describe the theory in detail. A summary of the relevant parts is givenhere.A third order Bezier curve is the point-bounded collection of points, which are the weightedsum of four special points called the Control Points.

Solidification time t(s) = B (V/A)^2 Where V = volume of the part or riser, A = surface area of the part or riser, B = anempirical mold constant. Then, according

A critical component of a national “green industries/green/energy jobs” effort is to motivatestudent communities and workforce to become proficient in STEM and associated manufacturingfields and trades, thus ensuring a 21st-century workforce. This senior design project engagesstudents in the implementation of an innovative method for improving design and measuringenergy efficiency using statistical process control. Through this project, students learn how toprovide a design method for evaluating the characteristics of green energy manufacturing. Thisstudent senior design project was in collaboration with Higginbothom Farm in New Jersey, whichis s a commercial farm that supplies restaurants, farmer’s markets, and grain

for theirmanufacture”2. The U. S. Department of Commerce has recognized the need for manufacturingeducation in responding to the challenges of the manufacturing industry in the United States.3Employers have a need for engineers to have some project and design knowledge when enteringthe workforce. It is these reasons that a class in manufacturing design is offered in order to teachstudents the process of design for the manufacturing of a product.ChallengesThe National Science Foundation recognized the need for project based learning as well as closeinteraction with industry.3 So the needs of industry must be taken into account when looking atthe structures of classes. With a class that emphasizes design how do the students get a flavor

Negative stereotypes about manufacturing careers can be changed withan increased awareness of manufacturing as a positive career choice, the targetedaudience can be engaged in follow-up activities relative to investigating a manufacturingcareer
