apply the principles they developed in previous courses. A journal is part of each student's portfolio. Each team is responsible for delivering progress reports and making final presentations to an outside review panel. The course meets for a total of 75 hours over a two- week period and focuses on the content as well as teaching methods appropriate for the course. This course is designed specifically and only for current high school teachers who have been assigned by their schools and districts to teach the Project Lead the Way courses in their respective schools. These courses carry graduate credit for those teachers who would use them as part of a master's degree program or for recertification. QUALITY AND LEAN MANUFACTURING COURSES - ETM ETM 5913. Six Sigma Tools I (3) This distance learning course provides an introduction to the six sigma body of knowledge as defined by the American Society of Quality (ASQ). The course will examine the foundations of six sigma and the statistical tools used in the initial stages of the DMAIC problem solving methodology. Prerequisite: BS with three years relevant experience & an engineering statistics undergraduate course or equivalent such as Math 3410 is required, or instructor's approval. Students also must be able to work on an approved six sigma project at a firm. ETM 5923. Six Sigma Tools II (3) This distance learning course is a follow-on to the initial six sigma course and provides additional detail on the analyze, improve and control portions of the DMAIC problem solving methodology. This course is required for the Institutional Certificate in Quality and Lean Manufacturing, and can be used as a technical elective for the Oklahoma State University Engineering Technology Management Masters Degree. Prerequisite: ETM 5913, Six Sigma Tools I. ETM 5933. Lean Tools (3) This course teaches students lean manufacturing tools for continuous improvement in a manufacturing environment.

Mechanical Engineering Technology Location: Engineering Technology Building, Room 214 Telephone Contact: Pat DeJong 801-626-6305 Email: met@weber.edu Advisors: George Comber, Kirk Hagen, Daniel Magda Wlechanical engineering technology is the practical application of mechanical engineering. Mechanical engineering technologists play an integral role in product design and manufacturing process cycles which include planning, design, analysis, testing and documentation. They utilize skills in materials science, engineering mechanics, thermal science, design, instrumentation and technical writing. The curriculum includes problem-solving courses such as statics, strength of materials, dynamics, machine design, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and heat transfer that are based on engineering science and mathematics. Integrated into many of the courses are laboratory and project oriented experiences that teach the practical, hands-on aspects of mechanical engineering technology. A balanced blend of engineering science and practical applications provides the mechanical engineering technologist the knowledge and skills needed to be successful in today's technical workplace. Mechanical engineering technology has lead to numerous opportunities for exciting, creative and rewarding careers in a wide range of industries including aerospace, automotive, electronics, manufacturing, medical equipment, mining and power generation.
