83 General MFET 5100. Introduction to Engineering Design (IED) (5) Su IED provides students with opportunities to be creative and to apply their decision-making and problem-solving skills to design problems. Students use powerful computer hardware and software (Inventor) to develop 3-D models or solid renderings of objects. Using a Computer Aided Design System, students learn the product design process through creating, analyzing, rendering and producing a model. 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. MFET 5300. Principles of Engineering (POE) (5) 5a POE is designed to help students understand the field and the career possibilities of engineering and engineering technology. Students work on the problem-solving skills that are used at the college level and in the workplace, and they explore engineering systems and manufacturing processes. Students learn how engineers address concerns about the social and political consequences of technological change. 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. MFET 5400. Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) (5) Su CIM is a course that applies principles of prototyping, robotics, and automation. It builds on the solid modeling skills developed in Introduction to Engineering Design. Students use computer- controlled equipment to solve problems by constructing models of their three-dimensional designs. Students are also introduced to the fundamentals of robotics and to how this equipment is used in an automated environment. Students evaluate their design solutions using various techniques and modifications before they produce the prototype. 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. MFET 5500. Engineering Design and Development (EDD) (5) 5m In this course, students work on a team with one or two others to design and construct the solution to an engineering problem. The problems involve a wide range of engineering applications (e.g., a school robo-mascot, automated solar water heater, remote control hover craft). The course serves as a capstone course where students 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. 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. This distance learning 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. ETM 5943. Lean-Sigma Implementation (3) This course introduces students to the implementation skills necessary to successfully combine and apply lean manufacturing and six sigma concepts in small to mid-sized manufacturing facilities. 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. Prerequisites: ETM 5923, ETM 5933. Mechanical Engineering Technology Location: Engineering Technology Building, Room 214 Telephone Contact: 801-626-6305 Email: met@weber.edu Advisors: George Comber, Kirk Hagen, Daniel Magda Mechanical 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.
