Engineering - Other (59) This project adapts and builds on the work of the successful "Learning Factory" developed as a collaboration among Penn State University, the University of Washington, and the University of Puerto Rico Mayaguez to close the competency gap among those students who are hired as manufacturing engineers and managers. This adaptation scheme is based on five major tasks: 1) adaptation and implementation of a more practice-balanced/hands-on manufacturing engineering curriculum through development of two joint interdisciplinary engineering-business courses, Enterprise Conception and Enterprise Design; 2) enhancement of the Entrepreneurship-Manufacturing Innovation Laboratory Experience (E-MILE) for practice-based learning and innovation; 3) outreach to the academic, manufacturing, and pre-college communities; 4) collaboration with industry partners; and 5) project assessment to evaluate the progress of activities and impact on the learning process and to identify opportunities for continuous improvement. Building upon the Learning Factory model, this initiative is providing a new course of action in how to stimulate creativity and innovation in talented young professionals.

工程--其他(59)本项目改编并借鉴了宾夕法尼亚州立大学、华盛顿大学和波多黎各大学马亚圭兹大学合作开发的成功的“学习工厂”的工作，以缩小受聘为制造工程师和管理人员的学生之间的能力差距。这一适应计划基于五项主要任务：1)通过开发两门跨学科的联合工程课程--企业概念和企业设计，调整和实施更注重实践的制造工程课程；2)加强创业-制造创新实验室经验(E-MILL)，以进行以实践为基础的学习和创新；3)向学术界、制造业和大学预科社区拓展；4)与行业合作伙伴合作；以及5)进行项目评估，以评估活动的进展情况和对学习过程的影响，并寻找持续改进的机会。在学习工厂模式的基础上，这一倡议为如何激发有才华的年轻专业人员的创造力和创新提供了一种新的行动方案。
