Contemporary Issues in Textile Sciences - A New Approach to an Introductory Course

这个项目将开发一个新的纺织科学入门课程。 它将通过一个以发现为导向的课程向学生介绍这门学科的创新技术方面。 产品开发和制造过程的方法。 除了将科学和工程的原则应用于成功的商业产品之外，法律的、营销和环境 实现《公约》所需的方面 的 一个成功的产品将被覆盖。 通过使用实践调查技术，研究和设计团队的方法，实地考察生产设施，行业专家讲座，专利和其他法律的问题的讨论，学生将被介绍给一个需要科学和工程毕业生的行业。

This project will develop a new introductory course in textile science. It will introduce students to the innovative technological aspects of this discipline through a discovery- oriented approach to product development and manufacturing processes. Besides applying the principles of science and engineering to successful business products, legal, marketing and environmental aspects necessary to the realization of a successful product will be covered. Through the use of hands-on investigative techniques, a research and design team approach, field trips to manufacturing facilities, lectures by industry experts, and discussions of patents and other legal issues, students will be introduced to an industry that needs graduates in science and engineering.
