• Program and Contact Information

  Manufacturing Systems Engineering is a new program offered under the .  The Manufacturing Systems Engineering (MSE) program is designed to prepare the student for professional employment in the manufacturing, service, or public sectors.  The MSE program is based on fundamental engineering knowledge, skills, and processes; including: systems thinking, process planning, model building, simulation, experimental design, project management, engineering economics, facility planning, problem solving, and process improvement.

  Students complete a year-long senior project with a team that brings together their experience and education. The senior projects help the student gain confidence in their abilities while gaining additional insight and skills in both teamwork and human relations.  

  The design portion of the emphasis provides the knowledge and skills required to fulfill a number of career roles that focus on product development process, fabrication, sustaining, and retirement of systems.  Concepts that are introduced throughout the curriculum include: system reliability, environmentally benign processes and materials, and economic competitiveness in a global economy.

  Preplanned agenda items for systematic review of Program Educational Objectives (PEOs - ABET Requirement)

  • Fall 2020: Review PEOs, SLO revision, annual continuous improvement metric report, general program status
  • Fall 2021: Review SLOs 1, 2, 1000 & 2000 level courses, annual continuous improvement metric report, general program status
  • Fall 2022: Review SLOs 3, 4, 3000 level courses, annual continuous improvement metric report, general program status
  • Fall 2023 91¶ÌÊÓƵ: Review of SLOs 5, 4000+ level classes, relationships of courses to SLOs, relationship of SLOs to PEOs, annual continuous improvement metric report, general program status
  • Fall 2024: Repeat cycle beginning with PEO review

   

  Student learning outcomes are related to PEOs and will be assessed routinely every year.  They are reported to the Industrial Advisory Committee and MSE faculty and the Engineering Department Chair.  Supporting material for the assessment will be stored by the Program Coordinator.  All metric assessment date will be stored for six years (relevant to the next ABET review cycle). Classroom artifacts that support curriculum requirements for ABET will be collected the year prior to ABET assessment, or as requested for regional accreditation. The program comes up for accreditation in 2020.  A formal request to ABET by 1/31/2020 will be required to initiate a reaccreditation evaluation visit.  A formal self-study report must be submitted to ABET by July 1, 2020 for a comprehensive general review.
