Manufacturing EducationThe National Center Of Excellence For Advanced Manufacturing Education (NCE/AME) wasestablished in Dayton, Ohio in January, 1995 with support from the National Science Foundation(NSF).* The center is based in the Advanced Integrated Manufacturing Center (AIM Center) thatis jointly operated by Sinclair Community College and the University of Dayton.The NCE/AME was one of the first three centers funded by the NSF under the AdvancedTechnological Education Program (ATE). The center’s objectives are to develop anddisseminate novel manufacturing education approaches that prepare BS and associate degreegraduates to contribute to the long-term improvement of manufacturing capability in the UnitedStates. Innovations in curriculum design
opportunities fordegree specializations are available at each university. To transfer to a B.S.E.T. degree mayrequire additional general education as well as technical prerequisite courses.A.S. / A.A.S.

Curriculum Development for an Interdisciplinary Manufacturing Engineering ProgramAbstractThis paper outlines the curriculum development effort for improving the interdisciplinaryengineering program at the University of Missouri-Rolla (UMR). UMR currently offerstwo BS degree option programs in manufacturing, one in Mechanical Engineering andthe other in Engineering Management, and MS degree programs in manufacturing arealso offered. As the manufacturing engineering program is relatively expensive to run,especially the manufacturing laboratories, a strategy to integrate various campusresources in materials and processes on campus to improve the curriculum has beenimplemented.

The result is that students are not exposed to norrequired to use higher levels of thinking for many years, yet engineering problems almost alwaysrequire higher levels of thinking.Industry recognizes and acknowledges these deficiencies in their recent graduate employees.Automotive manufacturers often hire graduates only to immediately place them into trainingprograms, up to two years in length, to help them develop the skills necessary to work in teamsand solve engineering problems that exist in a manufacturing environment.

– the SSS of manufacture-able materials. What about thestatistical quality control of such workpiece materials in mass production? What about introducing theconcepts of clean manufacturing, lean manufacturing, green manufacturing, etc. in class lectures? Thehonest answer is that we simply don’t have enough time to cover so many aspects of manufacturingprocesses and systems in a single course.Near the end of the semester we offer a few lectures on the topics that interest the IE students: GroupTechnology (GT), Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS) and Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM).But this is only a very quick overview, a cosmetic facelift and not deep learning.Some Viable Solutions:Many decades ago when the term “manufacturing

a time.Traditionally little time was spent during the product definition phase, instead considerable timewas exhausted throughout the design phase, and even more time was expended redesigning theproduct. “The key to shortening the overall design time is to better define the product and betterdocument the design process” (Morse & Babcock20, 2007, p. 221). Concurrent engineering (CE)spends more time initially planning and designing the product in order to avoid laterinterruptions and speed up the entire process. Concurrent engineering can be “defined as theearliest possible integration of the overall company’s knowledge, resources, and experiences indesign, development, marketing, manufacturing, and sales into creating successful new

While Toyota is often regarded as a conservative company, their manufacturing system, theToyota Production System (TPS, often called Lean), has influenced much of the modernmanufacturing industry. The key 14 principles of the Toyota Way show the human-centricevolution of manufacturing businesses from the days of scientific management [15]: 1.

lacking. Practice in an actual manufacturing scenario is expensive due toequipment cost, safety concerns, and inventory. Therefore, simulations of manufacturing scenarioswith scaled-down toys are common in educational settings. In addition, learning professionalskills, such as teamwork, are as valuable as technical skills. Minimizing production cost is one of the goals that manufacturing companies aim toachieve, thus organizations need to focus on eliminating waste in their processes and implementmanufacturing process improvement initiatives. Lean is a process improvement philosophy thathas been successfully applied by many organizations to improve their business processes [1]. Thiscontinuous improvement approach eliminates non-value

Magrab andthe Advanced Product Quality Planning and Control Plan (APQP) Reference Manual developedby Chrysler (now DaimlerChrysler), Ford and General Motors.12, 13 The first module is devotedlargely to a summary of the product development process (as described in the APQP ReferenceManual), quality, and team-based engineering tools such as quality function deployment andfailure modes and effects analysis. The second module is more focused toward manufacturingissues, including lean manufacturing, design of experiments, and statistical process control. Themodule sequence is primarily designed to provide students with

The transition to life on campusand the rigors of higher level academics is not always easy.This paper presents a review of a new introductory course required for students entering theComputer Integrated Manufacturing Technology (CIMT) program at Purdue University. Thisone credit course (meeting once a week throughout the semester) has been designed to helpprepare students for the academic life ahead of them. Students are presented with a variety ofdifferent views of the CIMT major, the current trends in industry, and to some of the resourcesand activities available to them while they are here on campus.

approach described in this paper is a three course series. The first course in the freshmenyear establishes fundamental mechanical engineering principles, including a focus on problemsolving skills and specialized design tools (e.g., CAD/CAM). The second course in the freshmanyear develops manufacturing skills including work-place safety, lean manufacturing, and thephilosophy of first-time-right while providing students with hands-on training in woodworking,light metalworking, manual milling, manual lathe work and Computer Numerical Control (CNC)machining. The intent is not to train engineering students to be machinists but rather to givethem an understanding of fundamental manufacturing processes. Each student must completean individual design
Computer Aided Design & Graphics by teaching students with hands-on type of educational practices and laboratory exercises in the area of FMS. A MiniCIM 3.2 Amatrol has been selected as the equipment to teach FMS. This equipment is used to modify the curriculum and nine courses and labs in the IET department to enhance the students’ learning. The FMS project serves also as a starting point to accomplish a six-year development plan of the Manufacturing Laboratory in the IET department. The goal is to complete a fully Computer Integrated Manufacturing system in six years. The strategy used is aligning students’ class projects and/or students’ senior projects with the goals of the Manufacturing Laboratory. These class projects

Introduction Digital startups are newly established companies that use digital technologies to innovateand deliver products or services [1]. These startups can thrive by integrating SystemsEngineering tools alongside Digital Transformation to enhance operational and technicalprocesses, enabling effective competition in a dynamic market [2]. In manufacturing startups, Product Design is crucial in the technical process. Selectingthe right tools, like Systems Modeling Language (SysML) or Modelica, can streamlineworkflows and enhance automation across manufacturing systems, offering strategic benefits.However, transitioning design conceptualization
