Safety The rules that apply in every lab, every day - what to wear, what to check, who has to be present, and what to do when something goes wrong. 23 pages Engineering Fundamentals Shared mathematical and technical concepts for describing, calculating, and communicating engineering work. 44 pages Engineering Graphics and CAD Read and create engineering drawings, then model parts and assemblies in CAD and take them to fabrication. 33 pages Materials and Manufacturing Processes How products are made: the four material families, and the processes that form, separate, fabricate, condition and finish them. 42 pages Machining Explore milling, lathe operations, feeds and speeds, and how dimensions determine whether parts fit. 58 pages Lean and Quality Workplace organization and continuous-improvement practice. It overlaps shop safety heavily - a tidy shop is a safer one - but it is a manufacturing discipline in its own right. 5 pages Artificial Intelligence Inspect how AI works, weigh evidence about its progress, and practice choosing prompts and tools through six complete interactive lessons. 7 pages
