Curricula Of Atmae Accredited University Programs: Building A Composite, Mark Doggett
Curricula Of Atmae Accredited University Programs: Building A Composite, Mark Doggett
SEAS Faculty Publications
The 2017 ATMAE Accreditation Handbook Standard 5 states that each baccalaureate program/ option should meet minimum-maximum semester hour requirements in the foundational areas of general education, mathematics, physical (or life) sciences, management, technical, and electives. The specific credit hours required for each category has a specified range. This study attempted to answer the question of what courses typical ATMAE accredited university programs most frequently require. ATMAE accredits four-year manufacturing, industrial, construction, and information technology programs. To what extent are these accredited programs similar in content? Is there a representative convention of content for university courses?
The objectives of the research …
A Study On The Students' Perceptions Of The Applicability Of Lean Principles At Universities, Muhammad Jahan, Mark Doggett
A Study On The Students' Perceptions Of The Applicability Of Lean Principles At Universities, Muhammad Jahan, Mark Doggett
SEAS Faculty Publications
Lean principles are well-established business management strategies, which are applied extensively in manufacturing and production industries to continuously improve value by reducing wastes. This paper investigated the applicability of lean principles at universities using the perceptions of undergraduate students at a higher education institution. The perceptions of the students were collected over a period of two years as a part of class assignments and discussions for a Lean Manufacturing class. The students’ opinions and comments concerned broad areas of stability, standardization, jidoka, just-in-time, employee involvement and customer focus. The majority of the students focused on the various categories of waste …

A Study On The Micro Electro-Discharge Machining Of Aerospace Materials, Mychal-Drew Moses
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is a non-traditional machining process that uses hundreds of thousands of minute electrical sparks per second to machine any electrically conductive material, no matter the hardness or how delicate it is. EDM allows a much greater range of design possibilities, unconstrained from the traditional machining processes, in which material is removed mechanically by either rotating the cutting tool or the work piece. Shapes that were impossible to machine by any other method, such as deep, precision, square holes and slots with sharp inside corners, are readily produced. It provides accurate geometries in high- aspect ratio holes …
