Toy crane project from ENGT153 class

Toy crane model designed and fabricated in ENGT153 class at Cerritos College.

This acrylic dinosaur is a work in progress on synthesis of mechanism in our ENGT159 Machine Design class . The example is a student Gabriel Gallegos designed toy using cranks and cams . The entire design was done inside #SolidWorks and motion simulated using #SolidWorks Motion simulation. The dino was cut from acrylic using laser cutter from #AirWolf3d donated acrylic sheets. More interesting toys and mechanisms coming soon !

From today's NPD103 class : two parts mold, #SolidWorks model, digital mold prototyping using #AirWolf3D Axium and casting of the part . An example by student Gabriel Gallegos .

Open house this Wednesday from 4-8pm at Cerritos College! Come learn about the Manufacturing industry and see presentations and demonstrations.

Gahr High School Student, Sunmin Yoon, explains how he created his random number generator in the Cerritos College Summer Workshop for Electronics and Robotics.

High School Students in our Cerritos College Free Summer Workshop for Electronics and Robotics (ET 102 & MTT 180) work on their circuit boards. This workshop was made possible by the Advanced Manufacturing Engineering Technology Linked Learning (AMETLL) grant.

This summer we have high school students in our Cerritos College Workshops! Check out what they are doing in their Electronics and Robotics workshop! Not only do they get to build robots and solder circuits, but they also earn COLLEGE CREDIT at the end of the workshop. Learn more at: http://cms.cerritos.edu/technology/summer-workshops.htm

Cerritos College has redesigned its curriculum to prepare students for certifications in skills such as welding, where certifications are required for workers who wish to labor on structures in LA county. A welding certificate also puts workers up from the $12 per hour range into the $16 per hour range minimuma compelling lure for jobseekers. Students can then continue taking classes once they are employed and gain other certifications that lead to even higher wages. Read more http://www.economicmodeling.com//giving-students-a-fighti/

Our Automotive Instructor, Joe Mulleary, shares strategies for connecting students to careers in industry. What to know what is on the top of the list? Read more on the blog by WorkHands.

On February 26, students had the opportunity to tour ROMAC Supply Company and Ink Systems Inc. in Commerce, CA. Students enjoyed learning about careers in the industry and taking the tour. The goal of the tour is to decrease drop-out rates, increase employer engagement, improve quality of career decision making and tie school-to-real-world for 7 -12th graders. This initiative is part of the Advanced Manufacturing Engineering Technology Linked Learning (AMETLL) grant. ... SELACO WIB, working in conjunction with Cerritos College-Technology Division and 5 school districts (ABC Unified School District, Downey Unified School District, Lynwood Unified School District, Norwalk-La Mirada Unified School District and Paramount Unified School District) plans to build awareness of the variety of careers available, connect the related postsecondary education and encourage identification of career interest for middle through high school students. In addition, the grant will create exposure and awareness of career options and workplace environments; knowledge of skills for in-demand occupations within manufacturing and engineering as well as training requirements and preparation; understanding of peer and parental influences and effectively connect the students to the workplace. Stay turned for more of our efforts! #ametll #engineering #manufacturing #linkedlearning
