As a finalproject, students are expected to model and simulate a work cell for the selected application andto perform the same with the physical robots in the lab. They will compare both outcomes forevaluation of the calculated results. Students submit a comprehensive engineering report todocument all requirements. Experiments and projects are designed and implemented in asequence that would allow the students to acquire a complete manufacturing automationexperience.

Future DirectionsIn this brief review of literature relating to Industry 4.0’s implications for South Korea, it is clearthat Industry 4.0 has the potential to transform South Korea’s future workforce. This developingphenomenon offers several opportunities for researchers. Promising areas for explorationinclude:1. What sorts of competency skills would be required for advanced manufacturing workers tosurvive in Industry 4.0?McKinsey Global Institute [9] recommended that workers seek additional education and trainingto adapt to an automated workplace. In the context of South Korea’s two-year technical collegeprograms, researchers may wish to investigate the extent to which current curricula containsadvanced manufacturing topics and reflects

General printing layer pattern such as zigzag will decrease tensile strength perpendicular tobuild axis and poor surface finish in order for dynamic testing. Therefore, a concentric fill patternwas set up using Slic3r software to maximize tensile strength for dynamic load frame testing. Thesaved file was then loaded to Cura software to run 3D printer as shown in Figure 2(c). For theprinting parameter, the film is printed at 220 °C of nozzle temperature, 50 °C of heating bedtemperature, and 15 mm/s of extrusion speed. Final film was 0.55 mm in thickness

Besidesengaging the students, the assignments allowed the instructor to directly assess students’learning of the concepts from the theory lectures. The students found the assignmentsinteresting and were more engaged to the topic as those ergonomic examples relate totheir daily life. The enthusiasm and interests of the students in those exercises werereflected in the course evaluation as well. It can be concluded that the exercises engagedstudents more intensively in the course and helped them to understand the applications ofergonomics.

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].
