Engineering Education, 2006 The Introduction of Environmental and Industrial Health and Safety Issues and Emerging Technologies in a Beginning Manufacturing Processes CourseAbstractIntroductory courses pertaining to manufacturing processes have traditionally beenincluded in the curriculums of associate and baccalaureate programs in mechanicalengineering technology. The majority of these courses emphasize such topics as forging,rolling, casting, welding, and machining, among others. While these courses typicallyprovide an outstanding foundation in the particular subject area and process mechanics,many have not included any significant coverage in the areas of environmentalmanagement or industrial health and safety.

This process is repeated untilthe interval has total length less than . In the end we have a closed interval of length less thanon which f changes sign. The Intermediate Value Theorem (IVT) guarantees that there is a zeroof f in this interval.

Theequipment that had been used in labs over the years was not safe and the safety issue hadto be addressed in any change of lab design.Software licensing had become an issue. A-B has a relatively new concept for licensureincluding a unique MAC address per copy. While the lab had enough licenses, thepractice of ghosting the software onto an entire lab of computers would not work with thenewer A-B software.Evaluations for the advanced course were spotty at best and less-than-acceptable at worst.Evaluations were even more dramatically negative with students at exit interviews for theEET program just prior to graduation. These exit
