Manufacturing Engineering - Miami University - Oxford

Manufacturing Engineering from Miami University - Oxford is a Campus Bachelor Manufacturing Technology degree that prepares you for a Engineering career. What is Manufacturing Engineering? Manufacturing engineering involves designing, analyzing, and applying manufacturing methods and processes so that quality products can be produced at a competitive cost. It is the manufacturing engineer who is most responsible for the efficient production of quality products. Manufacturing engineering is one of the fastest growing engineering disciplines and is making a significant impact on the United States' ability to design and manufacture a high-quality product that competes in a global marketplace. Miami's program in manufacturing engineering is one of only 24 such programs in the nation to be accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET). Miami student passage rates on the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam (the first of two exams for professional licensure) are significantly above the national average. In recent years, Miami's senior manufacturing engineering students have achieved over a 95 percent passage rate on the FE exam. Industry has a pressing need for manufacturing engineers because the technology required to manufacture products has become increasingly sophisticated. Businesses need people who can use computers to design and manufacture products in ways that increase productivity, improve quality, and reduce costs. What are the features of Miami's program? CIMS Laboratory The CIMS (Computer-Integrated Manufacturing Systems) Laboratory is an interdisciplinary, state-of-the-art lab environment that provides Miami students with advanced technologies and methodologies. Hands-on laboratory experience Students receive in-depth laboratory experience in materials, testing, computer graphics, statistical process control, microprocessors, CAD/CAM, and process and product design. Small classes The ratio of students to faculty in our department is small (22 students per faculty) resulting in small classes and ensuring close interactions with faculty. Design projects Open-ended/team-oriented projects that often lead to multiple solutions are integrated throughout the four-year program. Work experience To gain practical work experience in an area related to manufacturing engineering , you can participate in our summer intern program or in our co-op program. Interns have a single work assignment and complete the degree in four years. Co-op students alternate periods of school with periods of employment and complete the degree in five years. Top-notch facilities Miami offers laboratory experience in CAD/CAM, robotics, computer graphics, computer-controlled manufacturing systems, statistical process control, microprocessors, electronic instrumentation, and materials testing. Facilities also include equipment dealing with precision measurements, manufacturing processes, digital controls, and automatic control systems. View more details on Miami University - Oxford, OH .
