GOALI/FSI/Graduate Student Traineeship Site: Re-engineering Manufacturing Operations

小行星9510521 该实习项目的重点是研究生在行业中的学徒期，以提高研究生分析问题、制定解决方案方法以及识别关键研究问题的技能，如果这些问题得到解决，可以重新设计公司的流程。该项目建立在与赞助公司的现有计划之上。现有的关系是PI机构与公司之间的本科生学徒计划。该项目将使学徒方案扩大到研究生成为可能。 在研究生学徒制下，学生将对PI和工业合作伙伴共同确定的特定主题进行研究，以促进创新和创造性方法来实现公司的生产目标。该计划将使研究生接触管理，研究，产品开发，运营，制造和营销的哲学。 学徒经验的具体方面将涉及学生（1）与公司工程师合作，分析当前的运营和制造策略，并确定重新设计的主要领域，（2）制定重新设计流程，运营，维护，分销和物流的指导方针，以及（3）开发特定领域的内部仿真模型，用于在制造的各个阶段对公司的操作进行真实的时间性能分析。 该项目的一个核心要素是在一个实际的工业环境中创造一个环境，研究生可以挑战真实的制造问题。这种经验可以被学生用来提高他们的研究生院的经验。这一经验可以转化为产业驱动的研究生论文研究的一代。另一方面，工业合作伙伴将受益于学生的新见解，其主要目标是提高他们在真实的工业环境中解决问题的技能和经验。此外，作为合作的一部分开发的算法可以证明对工业合作伙伴非常有价值。

9510521 Ntuen This internship project is focused on graduate students apprenticeship in industry to improve graduate students skills in analyzing problems, formulate solution methodology, and identifying critical research problems which if solved can reengineer a company's processes. This projects builds on an existing program with the sponsor company. The existing relationship is an undergraduate apprenticeship program which the PI institution has with the company. This project will make it possible to expand the apprenticeship program to graduate students. Under the graduate apprenticeship, students will conduct research on specific topics jointly determined by the PI and the industrial partner to foster innovation and creative approaches to the implementation of the company's production goals. The program will expose the graduate students to the philosophies of management, research, product development, operations, manufacturing, and marketing. Specific aspects of the apprenticeship experience will involve the students to (1) work with company engineers to analyze the current operating and manufacturing strategies and identify major areas for re-engineering initiative, (2) develop guidelines for re-engineering processes, operations, maintenance, distribution, and logistics, and (3) develop a domain specific in-house simulation model for real time performance analysis of the company's operations at various phases of manufacturing. A core element of the project is the creation of an environment in an actually industrial setting where graduate students can be challenged with real manufacturing problems. This experience can be used by the students to enhance their graduate school experiences. This experience can translate to the generation of industry motivated graduate theses research. On the other hand, the industrial partner will benefit from the fresh insights of students whose main objectives are to enhance their problem solving skills and experiences in a real industrial setting. F urthermore, the algorithms developed as part of the collaboration can prove very valuable to the industrial partner.
