MEC 500 (Fall Semsters - 3 Credits)

Introduction to manufacturing system modeling and analysis. Fundamental principles of production systems. Analytical and simulation approach to production system performance analysis, continuous improvement, and design. Topics include mathematical modeling of production systems, production lines with various statistic distribution models of machine reliability, improvement analysis and real-time decision making. Includes both the relevant fundamental concepts and the extensive practical knowledge base on which manufacturing research, development, and design depend. The students are expected to complete a project, in which they will interpret real-life manufacturing plant operation in the light of course principles and suggest improvement solutions.

MEC 325/580 (Spring Semesters - 3 Credits)

The relationship between product design and manufacturing. Materials properties and influence. Introduces traditional and nontraditional manufacturing processes and their capabilities and limitations. Measurement inspection, reliability, and quality engineering. Economic impact of modern process engineering. Hands-on experience in the fundamentals of machining including, metrology tools, saw, sheet metal working, drilling, reaming, taping, turning, boring, milling, welding, and rapid prototyping.
