Return to: Programs
There is a critical need for more students to go into manufacturing and Engineering professions. Because of that need OhioTechNet and Ohio Higher ED worked with the Ohio Engineering Technology Educators, and the Ohio Manufacturers Association to develop the Manufacturing Foundations Certificate.
This program was designed by the ODHE and OhioTechNet and endorsed by the Ohio Engineering Technology Educators Association and the Ohio Manufactures Association.
Career Outlook
The Occupations that these students can go into are: Manufacturing, Engineering, Design, Drafting, Maintenance, Machining, Associate’s Degrees in Engineering and Manufacturing, along with Bachelor’s Degrees in Engineering and Manufacturing. The program was designed to be stackable. Students can get the certificate and go straight to work or they can continue on with an Associate’s Degree and then get a Bachelor’s Degree if they choose.
Program Learning Outcomes
Learners will be able to:
- Use a commercially available CAD system to create meaningful engineering drawings including: dimensions and tolerances, multiple views and projections; assemblies and bill of materials; and 3D models.
- Apply fundamental knowledge of engineering materials and why they are utilized in a particular application. Students will demonstrate an understanding of material composition; processes for manufacturing of steels and alloying; cold and hot working processes; and material hardness, modulus of elasticity, tensile strength, yield strength, and shear strength.
- Apply their knowledge of materials to manufacturing processes and demonstrate an understanding of: processes such as material removing, forging, casting, forming, finishing; fabrication processes such as welding, adhesives, and fasteners; production efficiencies (e.g., speed and feeds); and safety procedures and methods.
- Work as a member of a team to communicate effectively, solve problems, and improve productivity.
