Introduction
Building on the skills and knowledge you gained in ZAE105 ‘Introduction to Fabrication’, you will extend your ability to work with additional techniques and elements of fabrication, engineering, manufacturing and associated industries. You will also develop your ability to interpret technical drawings and job specifications by extending your knowledge of mathematical, statistical, mechanics, geometry and other engineering concepts. You will be supported by a substantial online learning resource that will enable you to extend your current level of understanding in these areas of knowledge through a combination of self-paced and formally assessed tasks. Applying these extended skills and knowledge, and your previous experience with fabrication, Lean manufacturing and quality management approaches, you will focus on measuring and assuring quality, consistency and efficiency of your fabrication outputs. This project proposal and design work completed in ZAE202 Manufacturing Project and ZAE204 Advanced Equipment Design are now implemented ahead of the handover to the industry client in ZAE207 Project Closure and Review unit.

Note
Please check that your computer meets the minimum System Requirements if you are attending via Distance/Off-Campus.
Units are offered in attending mode unless otherwise indicated (that is attendance is required at the campus identified). A unit identified as offered by distance, that is there is no requirement for attendance, is identified with a nominal enrolment campus. A unit offered to both attending students and by distance from the same campus is identified as having both modes of study.
Special approval is required for enrolment into TNE Program units.
TNE Program units special approval requirements.
* The Final WW Date is the final date from which you can withdraw from the unit without academic penalty, however you will still incur a financial liability (see withdrawal dates explained for more information).
Learning Outcomes
1. Apply extended engineering, geometry, mathematics and statistics knowledge to create and interpret technical data and specifications
2. Apply extended fabrication techniques using a range of equipment and materials while maintaining safe working environment
3. Analyse, measure and evaluate quality, consistency and efficiency of fabrication outputs and identify solutions to issue
