Weblinks Tags -- Aims & Objectives (Learning Outcomes) Top The aim of this module is to give students an overview of the various means of converting engineering materials into final products. The student will acquire an appreciation of the relative merits and demerits of the various methods of manufacture and their economics. Prerequisites (What should I know?) Top There are no pre-requisites for ME 3162. However, I expect you to already have a basic understanding of material properties.
