Izmir University of Economics

2. Course Syllabus Catalog Description
The objective of this course is to improve the efficiency of manufacturing enterprise using computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) technologies in the production systems that are used to manufacture products and the parts assembled into those products.
Course Overview
This course emphasizes the integration of manufacturing enterprise using computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) technologies. It employs CAD/CAM interface and other CIM sub-systems, database management, facility layout, product documentation, process planning, production planning and control, Group technology, teamwork, and manufacturing operations and management to bring about a students-designed CIM-oriented enterprise.

3. Course Objectives In this course, the student will:
Develop an understanding of classical and state-of-the-art production systems, control systems, management technology, cost systems, and evaluation techniques.
Develop an understanding of computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) and its impact on productivity, product cost, and quality.
Obtain an overview of computer technologies including computers, database and data collection, networks, machine control, etc, as they apply to factory management and factory floor operations.
Describe the integration of manufacturing activities into a complete system
Acquire sensitivity to human-factors related issues as they affect decision making in the factory environment.
