MECH1201:DL10 Computer-Aided Manufacturing Systems, Summer 2015
Course Website: Course Profile (this page): Time: MoTuWeThFr 06:00 – 8:30PM Room: V/0511A Instructor: Masato R. Nakamura (Office: V532) Description: A continuation of Industrial Processes with emphasis on semi-production and the function of the methods engineer. Medium run production equipment setup, economy, tolerance fixtures, CNC programming using CAD/CAM and related planning are recovered. Also covered are presswork, time and motion, machinability, feeds, speeds, job cost estimating. Students’ end-of-term reports include completion of a finished product incorporating modern manufacturing methods.
ENGR 1000 Introduction to Engineering and Computer Technologies
This course introduces the student to basic concepts and career options in Mechanical Engineering and Industrial Design Technology; Computer Systems Technology; Electrical Engineering Technology; and Electromechanical and Computer Engineering Technology. Hands on skills in these areas are developed and students use these skills to creatively solve problems in a group setting. Strategies to succeed in college, participation and leadership in groups, and effective oral and written communication skills, are emphasized.

Energy and Environmental Simulation Laboratory (EES Lab)
Research Lab Website: openlab.citytech.cuny.edu/eesl/ Lab Profile (this site): openlab.citytech.cuny.edu/groups/energy-and-environmental-simulation-laboratory/ Energy and Environmental Simulation Laboratory (EES Lab) is Professor Masato R. Nakamura’s research group based on Mechanical Engineering Department in New York City College of Technology (City Tech), The City University of New York (CUNY). This laboratory is a professional research unit, not a student club, but opens to everyone who would like to conduct research on energy, environmental engineering (including ecodesign), and computing for sustainability. Also, it’s for people who wish to obtain Research and Development (R&D) skills required in a high-level position in the industry and academia. Excellent students can be recommended to become research assistants in order to publish a paper as a co-author, and have an oral presentation in an international conference. These research activities make students’ resume strong (R&D skills, publication, professional presentation) and will be a huge advantage for finding an engineering position or being accepted to graduate schools for Master or doctoral degree. If you are interested in joining EES Lab, please send Professor Masato R. Nakamura (Tel: 718-260-5532, mnakamura@citytech.cuny.edu ) your resume and answers of following questions: 1) What kinds of research fields are you interested in? 2) How many hours per week can you spend for conducting research? 3) Describe your skills/knowledge of math, physics, computers, and experimental work (lab hands-on skills). 4) After finishing your degree program, what kind of industry or graduate school program you’d like to go?
