Computer Integrated Manufacturing Outreach Laboratory

工程-工程技术（58）在与区域制造企业的合作中，确定了计算机集成制造（CIM）高级研究的需求，作为制造系统管理计划的一部分。该项目的主要目标是调整、开发和实现一个模型课程，使学生成为制造技术人员，以理解制造环境中的系统集成和远程人机接口。计算机集成制造外展实验室（CIMOL）具有基于网络的远程交付能力，是为了满足行业对更高技能的管理人员的需求而开发的。CIMOL采用综合方法进行课程开发，包括六个学术部门的跨学科参与。学生参与实验室开发和创建图形用户界面的远程控制CIMOL。多个可重复的课程模块是适应和开发的本科制造技术教育的交付。该项目采用了美国国家科学基金会资助的AIM中心的范例材料，并增加了使用新兴监控和数据采集（SCADA）技术的创新组件。基于网络的图形用户界面的使用使不同的学生群体，包括地理位置偏远的学生，能够接触到先进的制造设备和设施。现有的教育合作伙伴关系通过现有的奥扎克制造教育中心得到加强，并通过K-12机构（如格林伍德实验室学校）和科学中心（如斯普林菲尔德发现中心）建立新的合作伙伴关系。

Engineering - Engineering Technology (58)In collaboration with regional manufacturing businesses, needs for advanced studies in Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) as part of the Manufacturing Systems Management program are identified. The primary goal of the project is to adapt, develop, and implement a model curriculum to prepare students as manufacturing technologists to understand systems integration, and remote human machine interface in a manufacturing environment. Computer Integrated Manufacturing Outreach Laboratory (CIMOL), with the capacity for web based remote delivery, is developed to meet the need for a higher skilled management workforce in the industry. CIMOL uses an integrated approach to curriculum development and includes interdisciplinary involvement from six academic departments. Students participate in laboratory development and creation of the graphical user interface for the remote control of CIMOL. Multiple reproducible curriculum modules are adapted and developed for the delivery of an undergraduate manufacturing technologist education. Project adapts exemplary materials from the NSF sponsored AIM Center and adds an innovative component using emerging Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) technologies. The use of web based graphical user interface exposes a diverse population of students, including geographically remote locations, to advanced manufacturing equipment and facilities. Existing educational partnerships are strengthened through the existing Ozarks Manufacturing Education Center and the creation of new partnerships through K-12 institutions such as the Greenwood Laboratory School and science centers such as the Discovery Center of Springfield.
