Detailed Scheduling and Planning I (2) Techniques and practices of detailed scheduling and planning of inventory management including order review methodologies, policies and functions of inventory. Covers lot sizing, safely stock techniques, demand, and Just-in-Time as they relate to detailed scheduling and planning. Prerequisite: MFET 3510 or equivalent. (APICS series). Evening classes only. MFET 4090. Welding Power Sources (2) 5 Study of power sources used to generate and control voltage and amperage for welding. Two lectures per week. Prerequisite: CEET 1140. MFET 4150. Execution and Control of Operations (2) Focuses on prioritizing and sequencing work, executing work plans, implementing controls, reporting activity results, and evaluating and providing feedback on performance. Eval. Prerequisite: MFET 3510 or equivalent. (APICS Series). Evening classes only. MFET 4200. Manufacturing Processes (2) Manufacturing processes define the methods that companies use in designing, producing, and delivering goods and services required by customers. The manufacturing processes provide the execution component to the other activities of the integrated manufacturing system. Beginning with customer requirements and needs, they design, build, operate, upgrade, and maintain a manufacturing process which is most supportive of and consistent with those needs and requirements. To achieve these objectives, manufacturing processes draw on three different but very interrelated subsystems: industrial facilities management, process design and development, and manufacturing. (APICS Series) Evening classes only. MFET 4210. Cost Estimating and Engineering Economics (2) Production cost structure, operation costing, break-even analysis, make buy decision, and capital equipment justification. Computer aids are used to analyze cost data. Three lectures per week. Prerequisites: MATH QL1080; TBETE1700. Co-requisite: MFET 4610. MFET 4250. Detailed Scheduling and Planning (2) Detailed explanation of inventory management including order review methodologies, policies and functions of inventory. Covers material requirements planning (MRP) and other material planning and capacity requirements planning techniques. Includes concepts, principles, interfaces, desired characteristics, applications, and supplier relations. Prerequisite: MFET 3510 or equivalent. (APICS Series) Evening classes only. MFET SI4300.
