The materials, resources and technology
requirements listed below are not entirely
comprehensive due to the potentially long
list of items required to stock a
manufacturing technology laboratory.
Flexibility in supplying this type of facility
needs to be maintained in order to tailor
the program to each year’s student
population and to allow for variety in the
activities and projects created within the
course.
The core themes (A, B, C, D, and E above)
will be covered; elective themes (F & G
above) are to be selected by the instructor on
an annual basis as the course evolves. The
instructor may choose to use parts, rather
than the whole, of all optional themes above.
