Enhancing Computer Integrated Manufacturing in UndergraduateEducation

巴伦西亚正在实施计算机集成制造(CIM)培训设施，为学生提供提高技能和参与应用研究项目的机会。实施工作包括购置、安装和测试制造过程中使用并得到课程修订支持的额外电子设备。作为额外设备的结果，学生学习全自动表面贴装技术(SMT)组装工艺。该流程可以模拟几乎任何自动化组装或测试需求。由于增加了设备，巴伦西亚电子工程技术(EET)和CIM学生将在电子工程方面更独立地进行批判性思维和决策。专业方向的工程预科学生将能够参加教授复杂仪器应用的课程，这些课程将帮助他们进行应用研究，并扩大他们对设计潜力、制造潜力和质量潜力的视野。

Valencia is in the process of implementing a Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) Training Facility to provide students with the opportunity to enhance their skills and to participate in applied research projects. The implementation includes acquisition, installation and testing of additional electronics equipment used in manufacturing and supported by curriculum revision. As a result of the additional equipment, students study a fully automated Surface Mount Technology (SMT) assembly process. The process can simulate almost any automated assembly or test requirement. Electronics Engineering Technology (EET) and CIM students at Valencia will, as a result of the additional equipment, be more independent in their critical thinking and decision-making in electronics engineering. Pre-engineering students on a professional career track will be able to enroll in courses that will teach the application of sophisticated instrumentation that will assist them in performing applied research and expand their vision for design potential, manufacturing potential and quality potential.
