Manufacturing Engineering Technology Location: Engineering Technology Building, Room 214 Telephone Contact: Wendy Reeves, 801-626-6305 E-Mail: mfet@weber.edu Advisors: George Comber, Andy Drake, Kelly Harward, Robert Milner, Rick Orr, Kerry Tobin I he Weber State Manufacturing Engineering Technology program has been recognized as one of the outstanding manufacturing technology programs in the country. The program is accredited by the Technology Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, 111 Market Place, Suite 1050, Baltimore, MD 21202-4012, telephone (410) 347-7700. The curriculum is designed to prepare the student for professional employment in industry by giving them fundamental knowledge and skills in a broad range of manufacturing disciplines. These include process planning, tool and machine design, material selection and treatment, process automation, manufacturing resource planning, Six Sigma methods and tools in manufacturing, and lean manufacturing. State-of-the-art laboratories give the students hands-on experiences with CNC machine tools, robotics, programmable logic controllers, systems integration and the latest in a variety of CAD/CAM systems. Year long required senior projects have included satellites, hybrid electric vehicles and computer integrated manufacturing cells and others which help students gain confidence in their abilities while gaining additional insight and skills in both teamwork and human relations.
