Why it Matters
In2019, 2019,Ohio's Ohio's manufacturing employed people. The state's factories nationofinplastics the production plasticsmetals, and and In manufacturing sectorsector employed 705,900 705,900 people. The state's factories led the nation inled thethe production and rubber,offabricated electrical appliances. Ohio also isequipment a leading producer of steel, autos, and trucks; state’sproducer two leadingofexport machinery and rubber, equipment fabricatedand metals, and electrical and appliances. Ohio also is a the leading steel,commodities autos, andare trucks; the state's motor vehicles.export commodities are machinery and motor vehicles. two leading Finding qualified applicants to fill available positions can be a struggle, however. Consider two recent studies by Deloitte, which found: • 2.7 million manufacturing/industrial workers are expected to retire in the next 10 years. • Manufacturing ranked last in career choices in workers aged 19-33. And it’s not as if manufacturing jobs aren’t there. More than 700,000 manufacturing jobs nationwide are projected to be created through growth in the sector. Program Goals/Outcomes Miami’s curriculum prepares students for entry-level positions in the industry and is effective preparation for additional education and training. Upon completion of the program, students will be able to: • Use a commercially available CAD system to create meaningful engineering drawings including dimensions and tolerances, multiple views and projections, assemblies and bill of materials, and 3D models. • Apply fundamental knowledge of engineering materials and why they are utilized in a particular application. Students will demonstrate an understanding of material composition; processes for manufacturing of steels and alloying; cold and hot working processes; and material hardness, modulus of elasticity, tensile strength, yield strength, and shear strength. • Apply their knowledge of materials to manufacturing processes and demonstrate an understanding of processes such as material removal, forging, casting, forming, finishing; fabrication processes such as welding, adhesives, and fasteners; production efficiencies (e.g., speed and feeds); and safety procedures and methods. • Work as a member of a team to communicate effectively, solve problems, and improve productivity. • Continue their education seamlessly toward an associate degree, bachelor’s degree, and beyond. How You Can Help Miami University Regionals’ new certificate program includes a required internship. By opening your company to an intern, you are creating a mutually beneficial relationship. Your intern gains valuable hands-on experience they can apply in the future. Your company could gain an employee if the intern returns after graduation.
