EMAE 560. Sustainable Manufacturing. 3 Units.

This course focuses on sustainable manufacturing principles and analysis methods including material flow analysis, energy flow analysis, life cycle assessment, and Taguchi method, etc., and covers a comprehensive list of manufacturing processes from conventional manufacturing such as metal casting and machining, to emerging manufacturing techniques like additive manufacturing and nano-manufacturing on their sustainable manufacturing operations and practices. Some of the important goals of this course are: a. Students learn to understand the fundamental methods and techniques of sustainable manufacturing. b. Students learn the theory and practices on sustainable manufacturing through sustainability analysis and improvement of industrial manufacturing processes. c. Students learn state-of-the-art knowledge on environmental impact assessment methods. d. Students apply the learned knowledge and skills in class discussions and project implementation. Prereq: Graduate student standing.
