Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical Engineering was designed as a course based on the field of Applied Mechanical Engineering. Product design and the Formal Engineering Process will be used to create products for specific uses and situations. Material classification, the physical properties of materials, and material testing will be introduced and how Industrial Tolerances will be influenced be these factors. Advanced 3-D modeling will include Complex Assemblies, Contact Sets and the Creation of Power Transmission Components. Creating mechanisms for predictable moving parts, forces on those parts and direction of travel will be a central theme throughout this course. Manufacturing process and methods for several common materials will also be covered. This course will enable the student to develop a digital portfolio of work throughout the course.

Mechanical Engineering was designed as a course based on the field of Applied Mechanical Engineering Technology. Product design and the Formal Engineering Process will be used to create products for specific uses and situations. The topics covered will include material classification, the physical properties of materials with ways to effectively design products using their specific properties. Advanced 3-D modeling, testing prototypes, and ways to tolerance interacting parts will be included. Creating mechanisms for moving parts, changing forces and direction will be a central theme of this course. Manufacturing process and methods will also be covered. This course will enable the student to develop a portfolio of work throughout the course with all completed work stored in their Mechanical Engineering binders.
