29 courses with the subject MFE, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
MFE 300Selected Topics1-6
Exploration of a topic (to be determined) not covered by the standard curriculum but of interest to faculty and students in a particular semester.
Offered through SUAbroad by educational institution outside the United States. Student registers for the course at the foreign institution and is graded according to that institution's practice. SUAbroad works with the S.U. academic department to assign the appropriate course level, title, and grade for the student's transcript.
Introduction to system modeling and optimization techniques and their applications. Topics include linear programming and its extensions, integer programming, dynamic programming, stochastic modeling, simulation and other system modeling techniques.
Topics include requirements for robotic application, mechanical considerations, and effectors, sensors, software, applications, and optimization of robotic systems. Laboratory experiments included.
Problems in designing and controlling manufacturing facilities. Layout design, line balancing, production planning, sequencing, material-requirements planning, group technology, and quality control.
Exploration of a problem, or problems, in depth. Individual independent study upon a plan submitted by the student. Admission by consent of supervising instructor(s) and the department.
Interdisciplinary subjects related to engineering, information technology, networking, AI and HTTP://WWW-based tools. The objective is to use different MAD tools in the product realization process.
