Price70 oents Foreword EDUCATION for technological change is our bridge to the new ageof nuclear power. Human energyhuman capacity for labormust be translated into human capacity to master new techniques and new mechanisms. Technical personnel in the modern industrial complex must have broad training in established fields of technology.Mechanical technology is one of those fields. All of the activities that support the work of the mechanical engineer require knowl- edge and understanding on the part of the engineer's team. This curriculum guide was prepared to help in planning and developing techni- cal education programs in mechanical design and production.It includes suggested 2-year curriculums in mechanical design technology and mechanical production technology.It offers suggested course outlines, suggested laboratory layouts, texts and references, and sample instructional materialsall presented as aids to the school administrators, supervisors and teachers who will be planning and promoting new programs of mechanicaltechnology.It may be used, too, in evaluating existing programs.Although the indicated level of instruction in this suggested curriculum is post high school, the sequence of course work may well start at any grade level where students have the prerequisite background and understanding. The technical materials included herein were prepared by the staff of the Mil- waukee Institute of Technology, acting for the Wisconsin State Board for Vocational Education, pursuant to a contract with the U.S. Office of Education. Many useful suggestions were obtained from special consultants and from administrators and teachers in schools of technology.Although all suggestions could not be incor- porated, each was considered carefully in the light of the publication's intended use. In view of this it 'hould not be inferred that the curriculum is completely endorsed by any one institution, agency, or person. The technical accuracy of the curriculum materials is due largely to the work of a group of eight outstanding engineers and educators who thoroughly reviewed these materials in conference with the staff of the Technical Education Branch in the U.S. Office of Education.
