Design and Manufacturing Curriculum in Industrial Engineering at Mercer University
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents an overview of design and manufacturing curriculum in effect at Mercer School of Engineering for the undergraduate students in Industrial Engineering. There is a need to incorporate changes in the design and manufacturing curriculum to meet the ABET requirements of EC 2000 (“a” through “k”). The work in progress, the future plan for changes, a sample lab experiment in robotics, and a typical senior design project in progress involving design and fabrication are presented and discussed.
