1. Descision

This course is established by Department of Mechanical Engineering 2013-12-18. The course syllabus is approved by Department of Engineering 2013-12-18 and applies from 2014-01-01.

2. Entry requirements

General requirements for university studies.

3. Objective and content

3.1 Objective

Manufacturing technology, which is a very broad concept, is concentrated in the course to the methods of mechanical engineering industry. The purpose is for the students to obtain a manufacturing engineering general education that a mechanical engineer needs in order to in an aware cost effectively manner participate in and head product development.

3.2 Content

Central elements in the course are:

• Plastic machining, rolling, pressing, bending, forging, cutting, punching.

• Cutting machining, turning, milling, drilling, tool material.

• Grinding and polishing methods.

4. Learning outcomes

The following learning outcomes are examined in the course:

On completion of the course the student will be able to:

Independently use knowledge about manufacturing methods to develop products in an economical and sustainable way.
Conduct basic calculations for processing.
In an initialized way discuss manufacturing methods with industrial engineering personnel.
in the form of an article, in short and concise way, describe a technical subject/occurrence.

5. Learning activities

Studies are conducted as tutorials with the help of rich learning material in both forms of books and forms of tutoring in the learning management system. The dialogue between student and teacher takes place mainly via learning management system. Different components in the course are illustrated through lectures as distance tuition. For a deeper understanding, the distance exercises are spent on calculations of central parameters in manufacturing. All educational material is in Swedish and all dialogue between tutor and student is in Swedish.

6. Assessment and grading

Modes of examinations of the course

Code	Module	Credit	Grade
1405	Assignment/Lab	5 credits	GU
1415	Written examination	2.5 credits	AF

The course will be graded A Excellent, B Very good, C Good, D Satisfactory, E Sufficient, FX Failed result, a little more work required, F Fail.

If grade FX or UX are given, the student may after consultation with the course coordinator / examiner get an opportunity to within 6 weeks complement to grade E or G for the specific course element.

The information before the start of the course states the assessment criteria and make explicit in which modes of examination that the learning outcomes are assessed.
