Numerical Control Programming: An Exciting Entry Point to Manufacturing Engineering Education Peter S. Rourke Wentworth Institute of TechnologyAbstractThe irony of the manufacturing profession today is that even though there is increasing need for skilledmanufacturing technologists and engineers, fewer high school seniors are selecting manufacturing as acareer. A large part of the problem stems from the perception of what is actually involved. Machinecontrol is often visualized to be “turning handles“ (often greasy dirty ones at that). In reality though,this is simply not the case as it is primarily direct interaction with computer
