Course details
Design for Manufacturability and Assembly (DfMA) - This unit focuses on the design principles that enable the efficient and effective manufacture and assembly of products, reducing waste and environmental impact. •
Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma - This unit introduces the principles of lean manufacturing and six sigma, which aim to minimize waste and maximize efficiency in production processes, leading to reduced environmental footprint. •
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) - This unit teaches students how to assess the potential environmental impacts of products, processes, and systems, and how to develop strategies to mitigate these impacts. •
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) - This unit provides an in-depth understanding of life cycle assessment, a method for evaluating the environmental impacts of products and processes throughout their entire life cycle. •
Green Technology and Renewable Energy - This unit explores the latest green technologies and renewable energy sources, such as solar, wind, and hydro power, and their applications in precision engineering. •
Waste Reduction and Recycling - This unit focuses on strategies for reducing waste and promoting recycling in precision engineering, including design for recyclability and waste-to-energy conversion. •
Supply Chain Management and Sourcing - This unit teaches students how to manage supply chains and source materials sustainably, reducing the environmental impact of production processes. •
Product Design for Sustainability - This unit introduces students to the principles of product design for sustainability, including design for disassembly, reuse, and recycling. •
Environmental Management Systems (EMS) - This unit provides an overview of environmental management systems, including ISO 14001, and how to implement them in precision engineering organizations. •
Circular Economy and Closed-Loop Production - This unit explores the concept of a circular economy and closed-loop production, where materials are continuously cycled back into production, reducing waste and environmental impact.
