3 credits

This course is designed to provide the student with knowledge of engineering materials and manufacturing processes. The course begins with a study of materials, including structural properties, and heat treatment of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Also investigate will be non-metal materials such as plastics and composites. Material selection criteria are emphasized. Students will develop an understanding of why various manufacturing processes are used, and the advantages of the different processes.
