MANUFACTURING SYSTEMS
MEGR 2180 Fall 2005
MW 3:00 – 4:20
Room: MENGR 345
Instructor: Dr. Scott Smith
Phone: (704) 687-8350
Email: kssmith@uncc.edu
Office: ERB 108A
Office hours: open door or by appointment: TBD
Texts: There are two textbooks:
Manufacturing Processes and Equipment, by George Tlusty
Engineering Economic Analysis, 9th ed., by D. Newnan, J. Lavelle, G. Eschenbach
General Description: The goal of this course is to impart a broad overview of
manufacturing materials, processes, and procedures, as well as engineering economics.
In one semester, we will cover the complete manufacturing textbook and selected
sections in the textbook on engineering economy. There will be 2 tests, 2 quizzes and
one final exam. A good understanding of algebra and elementary calculus and some
computer programming will be required. The use of spreadsheets for problems in
engineering economics will be strongly encouraged.
Description from course catalog:
Manufacturing materials, processes, and procedures, including mechanical behavior
and physical properties, basic materials, casting, rolling, forming, welding, cutting,
surfaces, engineering metrology, quality assurance, automation, engineering
economics, cost estimating, and economics of manufacturing.
Schedule: The schedule below is tentative and subject to change by the instructor.
Reading assignments should be completed by the next lecture after the assignment.
Reading assignments from Manufacturing Processes and Equipment are indicated by
“MPE”, while those from Engineering Economic Analysis are indicated by “EE”.
