MANUFACTURING ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY This is a four-year program and is accredited by the Technology Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET). The Weber State College Manufacturing Engineering Technology curriculum is nationally recognized as a leader in its field. The curriculum is designed to give the student fundamental knowledge of and basic skill in the planning and selection of the methods of manufacturing, the design of tooling and equipment for manufacturing, the selection and treatment of materials used in manufacturing, and the use of computers in design and manufacturing. Additional skills and knowledge are acquired in the development of process sheets, equipment specification and installation, value analysis, production and inventory control, and coordination with the design and production functions. This program offers three emphases: INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY EMPHASIS This emphasis is designed to accommodate the needs of students who desire to work in an industrial engineering function. This curriculum provides the knowledge and experience to perform the following functions: select and improve processes and methods, work measurement, select tools and equipment, design facilities (layout of machines and equipment) material handling, manufacturing resources planning, cost estimating, computer applications, and time studies. Three courses required: Inentc 342,401 and 465, plus one floating elective. COMPUTER INTEGRATED MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY (CIM) EMPHASIS This emphasis is designed to accommodate the needs of student who desire to work in the CIM function. This curriculum provides the knowledge and experience to perform the following functions: selecting automation systems (fixed automation, and programmable automation); selecting, programming, and use of industrial robots, programmable controllers and microprocessors; computer integrated manufacturing (inventory control, process planning, cost estimating, plant layout and material handling, and simulation of manufacturing systems); group technology, flexible machining systems; numerical control programming and machining; programming and usage of CAD/ CAM systems; computer programming (FORTRAN or BASIC or PASCAL). Three courses required: Mfentc 346,347,326 plus one floating elective. QUALITY ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY EMPHASIS This emphasis is designed to accommodate the needs of the student who desires to work in a quality control function. This curriculum provides the knowledge and experience to perform the following functions: design, analyze and use control charts; design and use acceptance sampling plans; control quality costs; understand and use the various statistical tools and analyze process capabilities; perform quality audits; perform vendor certifications; calculate reliabilities, do reliability studies, and use the FMECA model to assist the design functions to design 232 Manufacturing Engineering General Information reliable products; understand and use the management techniques for directing and controlling a quality function including participative management. Three courses required: Inentc 360,355,430 plus one floating elective.
