This is a proposal to prepare a planning grant for Tampa Bay regional center for manufacturing. This Center involves educational material development, adaptation and implementation from existing centers, and professional development for educators. A new manufacturing program at Hillsborough Community College (HCC), an emerging manufacturing technology program at St Petersburg College (SPC), and an active industry focused Engineering College at the University of South Florida (USF) form a strong academic foundation for the creation of this regional center. Furthermore, the manufacturing companies also recognize the urgent need to refocus manufacturing education in the region. Hence, the planning grant time and funds are going to be directed to conducting job and skill analysis, DACUMs, and fine tuning of results of the state-wide effort that are currently underway to assure maximum coupling among these schools and the manufacturing companies in the region.Planning grant funds are also going to be used to shape the proposed center's activities. Besides providing the needed synergy for academic and industrial partners focused on manufacturing issues, the Center is also going to build a bridge between the Associate of Science Degree at HCC in Manufacturing Technology and the B.S. Engineering degree (manufacturing emphasis) offered at the Industrial Engineering Department within USF's College of Engineering. In addition, the ATE Center is going to serve as a greater Tampa Bayregional umbrella for SPC's and HCC's Manufacturing Technology programs. The center is going to support all the regional high schools and community colleges that have courses or programs in manufacturing or related technology fields that should be revitalized.

这是一项为坦帕湾地区制造业中心准备规划拨款的提案。该中心涉及教育材料的开发、现有中心的改编和实施，以及教育工作者的专业发展。希尔斯堡社区学院(HCC)的新制造项目、圣彼得堡学院(SPC)的新兴制造技术项目以及南佛罗里达大学(USF)活跃的专注于行业的工程学院，为创建这一区域中心奠定了坚实的学术基础。此外，制造业企业也认识到迫切需要调整该地区制造业教育的重点。因此，规划拨款的时间和资金将用于进行工作和技能分析、DACUM和微调全州范围内目前正在进行的努力的结果，以确保这些学校和该地区的制造公司之间的最大耦合。规划拨款资金也将用于影响拟建中心的活动。除了为专注于制造问题的学术和工业合作伙伴提供所需的协同效应外，该中心还将在美国加州大学工程学院工业工程系提供的制造技术理科副学士学位和理工科学士学位(重点是制造)之间架起一座桥梁。此外，ATE中心将作为SPC和CC制造技术项目的更大坦帕湾地区保护伞。该中心将支持所有在制造业或相关技术领域开设课程或课程的地区高中和社区大学，这些课程或项目应该得到振兴。
