Show and qualifications. Most of the classes have labs where students receive hands on training to complement the classroom instruction. Students complete a senior project with a team that brings together their experience and education. The Manufacturing Engineering Technology Plastics and Composite Emphasis is designed to prepare the student for professional employment in the plastic/composite industry. Students will leam firsthand about the complex interdependence between plastic/composite process, materials, tooling, and part design. The design portion of the emphasis will provide the knowledge and skills required to fulfill a number of career roles that focus on the product development process, which includes plastic part design. Another phase of this education delves into the differences between the many types of plastics as well as the properties which differentiate plastics from other materials. This emphasis will also expose the students to a wide variety of tooling from the many plastic disciplines. This includes injection, thermoforming, blow molding, extrusion dies and high/low tech composite molds. This exposure provides the students with a keen understanding of the function, construction, and multi-component interactions involved in well- constructed plastics tooling. MANUFACTURING ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY ASSOCIATE OF APPLIED SCIENCE DEGREE (AAS) Areas of Emphasis Production Operations and Control Welding Plastics and Composites » Grade Requirements: A grade of "C" or better in all major courses, support courses, and technical electives is required (a grade of "C-" is not acceptable) in addition to an overall GPA for all courses of 2.00 or higher. Also refer to the general grade requirements for graduation on page 38. » Credit Hour Requirements: Credit hours vary as shown for different emphasis areas: the AAS for Manufacturing Engineering Technology with a Production Operations and Control Emphasis requires 64 credit hours, the AAS for Manufacturing Engineering Technology with a Welding Emphasis requires 63 credit hours, and the AAS for Manufacturing Engineering Technology with a Plastics and Composites Emphasis requires 64 credit hours. Transfer students are required to take a minimum of 20 credit hours at Weber State University. » Assessment Requirements: Students will be required to complete certain assessment instruments as part of the overall requirements for receiving their associate's degree. Please see your advisor or your department for specific information regarding assessment. Advisement All Manufacturing Engineering Technology students are required to meet with their faculty advisor at least annually for course and program advisement. Please call the department secretary at 801-626-6305 for the name of your advisor and to schedule an appointment. Admission Requirements Declare your program of study (see page 18). No special admission or application requirements are needed for this program. General Education Refer to pages 38-43 for Associate of Applied Science requirements. Computer and Information Literacy as defined in this catalog is also required for the AAS degree. Consult with your advisor for specific general education guidelines. Course Requirements for the AAS Degree CORE COURSES (50 credit hours) AAS Degree requirements for an AAS \ Engineering Technology, Production Operations and Control Emphasis, an AAS Degree in Manufact with a Welding Emphasis, or an AAS Degree in Engineering Technology with a Plastics and Composites Emphasis will be met by completing the first two years of the respective BS Degree.
