, there is a concomitant needfor changes in design and manufacturing pedagogy. It is important for engineering education to have the multi-and cross-disciplinary approaches expected of practicing engineers. Design education needs a perspective ofproduction-related topics while manufacturing education needs an emphasis on manufacturing response todesign changes. The Design & Manufacturing course introduced at R.P.I. in Spring 1995 combined elements of bothdesign and manufacturing education in a new way. This upper-class Mechanical Engineering course gives avertical exposure to elements of the design-to-production process. It gives the opportunity to combine and applymaterial from engineering science courses to working a unified set of
, control, modeling, design, CAD/CAM,vision, manufacturing systems, simulation, automation, and mechatronics. This paper willexplain how effective this course can be in unifying different engineering disciplines when usingproblem solving related to various important manufacturing automaton problems. These coursesare focused on educational innovations related to the development of student competency in theuse of equipment and tools common to the discipline, and associated curriculum development atthree public institutions, in three different departments of mechanical engineering technology.Through these courses students make connections between the theory and real industrialapplications. This aspect is especially important for tactile or kinesthetic

Manufacturing Engineering Education Background The work from Ssemakula et al. published a questionnaire where 25 universities responded about their manufacturing processes courses at respective universities. The survey states that 88% of the Manufacturing Process courses taught at universities had a lab component associated with the course.1 The Learning Factory is an example of long standing research, providing data on the importance of hands-‐on learning in manufacturing engineering education. The Learning Factory is a practice-‐based curriculum with a goal to provide an improved educational

The bottomof the diagram lists fundamental knowledge and skills common to all engineering disciplines.The top level, the lentil, represents the skill sets specifically requested for manufacturingengineers. The content representing the foundation, lentil, and four pillars of the model are listedacross the top of Table 1, and the ABET learning outcomes criteria are listed down the left side.This paper will discuss how the Four Pillars model can be used to effectively frame assessmentof the ABET criteria.The undergraduate curriculum is designed to demonstrate that the ABET learning outcomescriteria are realized by any graduate of the degree
kilowatt compared to more conventional energy sources. In addition, if fuel cells areto be used in high volume products, they must be manufactured efficiently and in quantity.This situation presents opportunity for both professionals and educators in the manufacturingfield. Currently, fuel cells are low volume products that are often built to order, with resultinghigher costs and longer lead times. Many of the key components of fuel cells are not made usinghigh production techniques. Successful evolution of the fuel cell industry requires productionresearch and the application of modern manufacturing principles, as well as a supply ofgraduates from manufacturing programs in which these principles have been emphasized.This paper introduces readers
