These students are highly motivated to continue their formaleducation. Most have full-time jobs, families and other civic duties, so they havehigh expectations of the graduate courses. They work in many industries thatcover many fields. Most have a formal engineering education, but many arepracticing in other business areas such as manufacturing, information systems,finance, strategic planning and mergers. With these backgrounds, they bring awealth of broad experience to the classroom.To provide value to this experienced, motivated, talented group of graduatestudents, our programs are structured to engage the

I would like to learn how real gears are machined. Seems like it would be very specialized manufacturing. Could students be asked to make real components, such as gears and bearings. These ideas and suggestions are a source of new lab activities. Although some are easier thanothers to implement, many are worthwhile and reflect a deep understanding of gear concepts.
