Mechanical Engineering (56) The project is adapting and implementing The Learning Factory model developed at Pennsylvania State University, the University of Washington, and the University of Puerto Rico-Mayaguez by creating an on-demand fabrication laboratory to integrate design, manufacturing, and business curriculum. The project is integrating manufacturing topics and equipment within existing core curriculum courses in fluid mechanics and dynamics, solid mechanics, materials sciences, manufacturing processes, fracture mechanics, and computer aided manufacturing, rather than creating new courses. The project is providing appropriate hands-on experiences and practical applications related to important course topics. Syllabi are being coordinated between core classes in order to provide common laboratory experiences for students when they are concurrently enrolled in two or more core courses. Assessment of the project is being coordinated through an independent evaluator who has been part of the original Learning Factory team at Pennsylvania State College.A Haas CNC Machining Center and an EDM Die-sink Machine is being purchased with matching funds provided by the Department of Mechanical Engineering and the College of Engineering. The equipment is the foundation for expanding the laboratory infrastructure, which is providing the opportunity for complementary coverage of fundamental fabrication principles; providing senior design experiences that simulate real life-product development processes including manufacturing planning, fabrication, assembly and testing of functional products; providing the resource to integrate industry-based projects within undergraduate research; expanding the opportunity to offer programs to industry through the institute's Small Business Development Center; providing accessibility for the Society of Women Engineers to engage fifth graders in annual engineering workshops; and developing outreach programs and activities for K-12 STEM students.

机械工程（56）该项目正在适应和实施学习工厂模型在宾夕法尼亚州立大学，华盛顿大学和波多黎各-马亚圭斯大学开发，通过创建一个按需制造实验室，以整合设计，制造和商业课程。该项目将制造主题和设备整合到现有的流体力学和动力学、固体力学、材料科学、制造工艺、断裂力学和计算机辅助制造等核心课程中，而不是创建新课程。该项目提供与重要课程主题相关的适当实践经验和实际应用。核心课程之间的教学大纲正在协调，以便为同时注册两门或两门以上核心课程的学生提供共同的实验室经验。该项目的评估是通过一个独立的评估者进行协调的，该评估者是宾夕法尼亚州立大学最初的学习工厂团队的一部分。一台哈斯数控加工中心和一台EDM模具下沉机是由机械工程系和工程学院提供的配套资金购买的。该设备是扩大实验室基础设施的基础，这为基本制造原理的补充覆盖提供了机会;提供模拟真实的生活产品开发过程的高级设计经验，包括制造规划，制造，组装和功能产品的测试;提供资源，将基于行业的项目整合到本科研究中;通过该研究所的小企业发展中心扩大向行业提供项目的机会;为女工程师协会提供无障碍环境，让五年级学生参加年度工程研讨会;并为K-12 STEM学生制定外展计划和活动。
