Intended Outcomes for the course

 A comprehensive review of the materials to prepare for the Society of Manufacturing Engineers (SME) Certification Test for the Manufacturing Engineer (CMfgE) with emphasis in Manufacturing Processes.  
  This course is based on performance outcomes. The following performance outcomes are based upon established industry standards. The student will demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the following:
  • General Introduction: What is Manufacturing?, Examples of Manufactured Products, The Design Process and Concurrent Engineering, Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DFM&A), Properties of Materials, Heat Treatment, Ferrous Metals and Alloys, Nonferrous Metals and Alloys, Nonmetallic, Materials: Plastics, Elastomers, Ceramics, and Composites, Material Selection, Selecting Manufacturing Processes, Computer Integrated Manufacturing, Quality Assurance and Total Quality Management, Global Competitiveness and Manufacturing Costs, Lean Production and Agile Manufacturing, Environmentally Conscious Design and Manufacturing, Product Liability, Organization for Manufacture
  • Casting Processes: Fundamentals of Casting, Expendable - Mold Casting Processes, Multiple - Use - Mold Casting Processes, Powder Metallurgy
  • Forming Processes: The Fundamentals of Metal Forming, Hot - Working Processes, Cold - Working Processes, Forming of Plastics, Ceramics, and Composites
  • Material Removal Processes: Chip Type Machining Processes, Cutting Tools for Machining, Turning and Boring and Related Processes, Drilling and Related Hole Making Processes, Milling, Broaching, Sawing and Filing, Abrasive Machining Processes, Work Holding Devices, Machining Centers,  Thread Manufacturing, Nontraditional Machining Processes, Superabrasives
  • Joining Processes: Gas Flame Processes: Welding, Cutting, and Straightening, Arc Processes: Welding and Cutting, Resistance Welding, Other Welding and related Processes, Brazing and Soldering, Adhesive Bonding and Mechanical Fasteners, Manufacturing Concerns in Welding and Joining
  • Measurement and Quality Assurance: Measurement and Inspection, Nondestructive Inspection and Testing, Process Capability and Quality Control
  • Processes and Techniques Related to Manufacturing: Surface Treatments and Finishing, Electronics Fabrication, Manufacturing Systems and Automation, Production Systems, Integrated Manufacturing Production Systems  

Course Activities and Design


MCH 289 will be presented by means of lecture/discussion sessions. The course activities and design emphasize the development of skills and knowledge competencies prescribed by business and industry performance standards.  

Outcome Assessment Strategies

 Student performance measurements are based on typical business/industry performance standards. They are grouped into performance competencies (specific skills) and knowledge competencies (understanding specific subjects). The various areas of study during the course will be evaluated by a variety of activities.
