1.00 Credits
Fall This course is designed to show the student how skills learned in high school math and science courses can be applied to technology courses at the college level. Some topics emphasized will be the correct use of units in calculations, the correct use of scientific calculators, problem-solving techniques, practical graphing techniques, and methods of organizing and writing laboratory reports.
-
4.00 Credits
Fall Lab fee will be required. This course introduces students to the basic concepts of theory and use of various instruments used in modern industrial and commercial settings. Included in this course, students will learn the basics of electronics as applied to instrumentation, automatic control theory, and the analysis of simple automatic control systems. The types of instruments covered include those that read and record voltage, current, resistance and power; sensors for pressure, heat, and strain; and torque, fluid flow, and vibration measurement. Prerequisite: PHYS 136, Technical Physics II, or permission of instructor.
-
4.00 Credits
Spring Lab fee will be required. An overview course designed to introduce the student to decision-making problems in the operations and production areas for both products and services. Statistical applications in both sampling and non-sampling scenarios will be developed. Linear regression and linear programming models will be introduced and developed. Statistical quality control applications will be introduced and developed. Goal-oriented applications will be introduced. The student will receive hands-on applications of microcomputer modeling techniques for each of the major goals. Applications areas will be derived from a variety of sources, including production and manufacturing, resource allocation, and manpower deployment. Prerequisites: MATH 150, College Algebra and Trigonometry (Technical Mathematics I) or MECT 110, Microcomputer Applications for Technology or equivalent course from School of Business or demonstrated use of a spreadsheet program sufficient to ensure course completion.

4.00 Credits
Spring Lab fee will be required. Strength ofMaterials deals with the relationship between forces applied to bodies and the resulting stresses and deformations. It involves the determination of proper sizes to satisfy strength and deformation requirements. The lecture is supplemented by problem solving sessions. In the laboratory, students perform ASTM testing and reporting on a chosen material, after which they design and construct a product to perform to given requirements using that material. Included in the course are data acquisition, analysis, and presentation methods using the latest software packages. Contact the Mechanical/Industrial department to confirm current software. Prerequisite: MECT 125, Engineering Mechanics; MATH 151, Analytic Geometry and Basic Calculus; MECT 110, Microcomputer Applications in Engineering Technologies or permission of instructor.
-
4.00 Credits
Spring Lab fee will be required. This course introduces students to the major topics in modern manufacturing. Included in this course are computerized machining, inventory control, and computerized quality control methods. The modern languages used for CNC programming and robotics are covered. Contact the Mechanical/Industrial department to confirm current software. Prerequisite: MECT 120, Manufacturing Processes; MECT 110, Microcomputer Applications in Engineering Technologies.
-
4.00 Credits
Spring Lab fee will be required. Kinematics and dynamics as related to industrial machinery. Theory will be applied during the laboratory. The creation, design, and analysis of shafts, gears, brakes, couplings, bearings, springs and keys. Computer programs will be used to check designs. Prerequisites: MECT 125, Engineering Mechanics; MECT 225, Strength of Materials.
-
7.00 Credits
Fall Lab fee will be required. The use of modern machine tools in all phases of metal working. The setup and operation are taught with the student setting his or her own pace. The type and level of work performed is dependent on the student's past experience and/or his/her ability and interest.
-
7.00 Credits
Spring Lab fee will be required. A continuation of MFTS 101, Introduction to Machine Tools (Laboratory I), with student completing experience on basic machines. Quality control, introduction to fits and assembly and precision setup are taught. Prerequisite: MFTS 101, Machining Processes Laboratory I.
-
4.00 Credits
Fall The construction, purpose and operation of lathes, drill presses, sawing, and milling machines are studied. Included are the theory of cutting angles, tool and cutter selection, cutting speeds, feeds and coolants, industrial safety, use of bench and layout tools, measuring instruments, gauges and accepted inspection practices.
-
4.00 Credits
Spring A continuation of MFTS 111, Machining Processes Theory I, includes the construction, operation and application of grinding machines, shapers, planers, turret lathes, chuckers, automatic bar machines, numerical control, and electrical discharge machines. Prerequisite: MFTS 111, Machining Processes Theory I.
