MEC 100Introduction To Engineering Technology3
Introduction to Engineering Technology is designed to provide students with the foundation necessary to succeed in the Mechanical Engineering Technology program and in industry. The course will introduce students to important concepts in industry to include safety, maintenance, and quality. Students will learn how to create the type of technical reports industry desires through individual and group design projects. Key concepts such as critical thinking, problem solving, and team building will be exercised through classroom activities. Students obtain resume writing and interview skills. Tours of local manufacturing facilities will provide students the opportunity to experience the manufacturing environment allowing for experiences they can relate to in future classes.
This course teaches the fundamentals of engineering drawing to acquaint students with traditional board drawing skills and computer aided drafting (CAD). Upon successful completion, students should be able to: properly use CAD drafting tools to create a title block; draw views of objects using orthogonal techniques; illustrate interior views using sections; dimension a drawing; use CAD to prepare to construct, layout, dimension, and annotate two/three dimensional drawings. Credits 3
This course is designed to acquaint students with a broad overview of preventive maintenance, predictive maintenance, non- destructive testing, and computerized maintenance. The course will cover the economic benefits of properly maintaining manufacturing equipment to minimize down time and capital cost of premature replacement by teaching students the importance of preventive maintenance programs and the techniques involved in Total Productive Maintenance (TPM). Students will learn how to create inspection and preventative maintenance plans based on machines in the lab and processes in industry. Credits 3
This is an introductory course in industrial instrumentation and controls. Students will learn the basics of a variety of instrumentation used for process automation, control valves, digital communications, safety systems, process control, etc. Theory will be explained from the text and tested with experiments using actual equipment typically used in industry.
