Course Description
Traditional and nontraditional manufacturing processes and equipment. Application of
engineering analysis tools to manufacturing
Course Objectives
Upon completion of this course, students will demonstrate:
1. a descriptive and qualitative understanding of traditional and non-traditional
manufacturing processes;
2. the ability to use engineering science tools such as advanced mathematics, stress
analysis, and materials science to analyze manufacturing processes and machines; and
3. the ability to rapidly and accurately perform manufacturing engineering evaluations and
analyses
Course Schedule
Every cohort of students is different. You have similar, but different, backgrounds, experiences,
and previous courses than every other group who has taken EML 4321. In addition,
manufacturing is a dynamic field and changes rapidly. Also, additional information and
educational tools may become available to me as the semester progresses. To unthinkingly give
you an exact schedule and not be adaptive would be educationally irresponsible and is
something not appropriate for the type of university UF intends to become. I promise to adjust
the course as it proceeds and therefore cannot give you a fixed schedule. We will cover most of
the chapters in the textbook in the order they appear. What you should be reading at what
times will be announced in class.

Course Evaluation
Students are expected to provide feedback on the quality of instruction in this course by
completing online evaluations at https://evaluations.ufl.edu/evals. Evaluations are typically open
during the last two or three weeks of the semester, but students will be given specific times
when they are open. Summary results of these assessments are available to students at
https://evaluations.ufl.edu/results/.
Software Use
All faculty, staff, and students of the University are required and expected to obey the laws and
legal agreements governing software use. Failure to do so can lead to monetary damages and/or
criminal penalties for the individual violator. Because such violations are also against University
policies and rules, disciplinary action will be taken as appropriate. We, the members of the
University of Florida community, pledge to uphold ourselves and our peers to the highest
standards of honesty and integrity.
Student Privacy
There are federal laws protecting your privacy with regards to grades earned in courses and on
individual assignments. For more information, please see:
