Introduction “I ponder the grim fact that Greece, for all its art and philosophy, and Rome, for all its wealth and technology, both in the end toppled and fell. Perhaps a culture that weds competence to grace, and wisdom to know-how, would persevere and flourish where others have failed. Such a culture would have at its core a cadre of civilized engineers.”1A civilized engineer would understand and appreciate the

consequence, many engineering schools dismantled theirmanufacturing process laboratories. Attempting to rebuild the labs is prohibitively expensive, especially in lightof budget concerns and the explosion in new equipment technologies. Another complaint about traditionalmanufacturing courses having a “hands-on” lab was that it only trained students to be “shade tree mechanics”and not “real engineers”. Simply reimplementing the traditional course can not overcome these deficiencies.Several curriculums have implemented a lecture based survey course to make students aware of manufacturingtopics. Lecture courses, by their very nature, are incapable of conveying an appreciation for manufacturingissues that the hands-on labs can achieve in a limited
