Course description and aims

[Description] Students will form teams of three, and gain experience with manufacturing that leverages the exceptional properties of metals. Students will draw up plans for, design, and manufacture products through their own originality and ingenuity. Students and instructors will evaluate manufacturing process and products.

[Aims] Students will learn free-thinking skills and teamwork in the manufacturing process, fostering problem identification and solving skills.

Student learning outcomes

[Student learning outcomes] Students will gain an understanding of the properties of metal materials, and leverage their properties to invent, draw up plans for, design, manufacture, and evaluate the various structures and functional units (sound equipment, devices, transport equipment, etc.) related to real life. Students will thus gain experience with the connection between material functions and material selection, developing creative potential, original thinking, and planning skills.
[Topics] The instructor in this course will cover "manufacturing a veneer car", "manufacturing high-performance batteries (lead acid battery)", and "creating acoustic parts of a music box" as topics.
