Additionally, representatives from the pK-12 sector should beincluded to provide perspective on foundational education preparation. These partnershipsexemplify the essence of a P-20 model [6]. The model addresses the development of the studentfrom pK-12 through higher education to participate in the workforce. Recent decisions for bringing back manufacturing sent overseas have been based on therealization that manufacturing in the U.S. is only slightly more than the cost of manufacturing inChina, and less than the cost of manufacturing in eastern Europe [7

IntroductionMost US manufacturing, mechanical engineering and engineering technology programs offerhands-on practices to undergraduate students. Courses with hands-on labs and/or design projectswere mainly related to three Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET)student outcomes: (b) an ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze andinterpret data, (g) an ability to communicate effectively, and (k) an ability to use the techniques,skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice.
