MATH – MCDESG DEGREE/DIPLOMA/CERTIFICATE COURSE DESCRIPTIONS

MATRLS – Material Technology (Department 613) MATRLS-102 Credits:3 Material Testing This lab/lecture course de fi nes properties of engineering materials and then performs tests to measure these properties. ASTM procedures are examined and applied to many of the tests. Tests performed include hardness, tensile, impact, shear, compression, creep and bend testing. The course also covers failure modes such as fatigue and corrosion. MATRLS-105 Credits:2 Statistical Process Control This lecture course teaches the basic concepts of quality control and statistical process control (SPC). Histograms, normal distributions, control charts (including x and R, moving range, p and np), and process capability are covered. These tools are applied to common applications in manufacturing and service industries. MATRLS-108 Credits:2 Principles of Metallography This lab/lecture course studies the microstructures of common ferrous alloys (steels and cast irons) and their relationship to chemical composition, thermal cycles, and mechanical properties. Phase diagrams are used to understand microstructures. Lab methods covered include sample preparation, microscopic and macroscopic examination, and photography. Prerequisite(s): Complete MATRLS-151. MATRLS-110 Credits:2 Fundamentals of Heat Treatment of Metals This lab/lecture course studies the microstructure and property changes that occur during heat treatment of steel and cast iron and relates these changes to the iron-carbon phase diagram. Treatments performed include hardening, tempering, normalizing, annealing, and surface hardening. Lab work also includes hardness testing and some metallography. MATRLS-151 Credits:3 Metallurgy and Material Science This lecture/demonstration course studies engineering materials (metals, plastics, ceramics and composites). Topics include re fi ning and recycling of metals, classi fi cation and uses of steels, cast irons, nonferrous alloys, plastics, material properties, phase diagrams, heat treatment, corrosion and solidi fi cation. Atomic structure and nanotechnology are discussed. MCDESG – Mechanical Design Technology (Department 606) MCDESG-102 Credits:3 Technical Drafting 1 This course is designed to provide the principles of drafting as well as an

introduction to computer-aided drafting. Geometric constructions, sketching, orthographic projection, section views, dimensions (without tolerances) and primary auxiliary views are covered in this course. Prerequisite(s): Completion of or currently enrolled in CIVIL-102. MCDESG-104 Credits:3 Technical Drafting 2 with CAD This course uses 2D and 3D CAD to introduce thread terminology, tolerances and fi ts, secondary auxiliary views, structural steel, and weldments. The relationship between parts is explored through assemblies created from downloaded components and student created models. Prerequisite(s): Complete MCDESG-102 and CIVIL-105. Completion of or currently enrolled in MCDESG-114. MCDESG-106 Credits:3 Advanced Engineering Graphics This course focuses on advanced engineering graphics concepts utilizing SolidWorks instruction, and includes advanced detailing of parts and assemblies bill of materials, parametric equations, tables, and spreadsheets. This course will emphasize GD&T in the relationship between parts and fi ts calculations between mating parts such as gears, bushings, keys, retaining rings, and fasteners. Prerequisite(s): Complete MCDESG-104, MCDESG-114 and CIVIL-105. MCDESG-112 Credits:3 Tool Design This course is designed to give the Mechanical Design student knowledge in the design of simple jigs and fi xtures, gauges and dies, using two and three dimensional SolidWorks 1 This course introduces parametric solid modeling using SolidWorks software. Students focus on part modeling and assembly skills with an emphasis on design. Detail drawing with dimensioning and rapid prototyping techniques are also introduced. MCDESG-116 Credits:3 Design Elements This course instructs students on the selection of machine elements (components) and their strength analysis. These elements include belts, chains, spur gears, keys, couplings, seals, bearings, clutches, brakes, electric motors, and fasteners. Strength of Materials concepts and fi ts are applied to the shafts that carry these elements. Prerequisite(s): Complete MCDESG-106, MCDESG-130 and CIVIL-105. design. Prerequisite(s): Complete MCDESG-106 and MCDESG-114. MCDESG-114 Credits:2
