University of Wisconsin Stout | Wisconsin's Polytechnic University

Field projects for the Masters of Science Manufacturing Engineering are selected by the student, and are usually related to their employment. In most cases, quantitative data is collected that mutually benefit the student’s academic program as well as the student’s employer. These projects are planned in advance by the student under direction of a faculty teaching the MFGE-707 course. Field Project Formulation is taken just prior to INMGT-700. The purpose of this course is for the student to read/critique research papers from previous students and to write a detailed and technically accurate proposal for their desired field project. The student's accurate field project proposal is then passed out to potential faculty advisers. Learn more about the Research Paper at the Graduate School's Web site.

UW-Stout has an excellent Writing Center to assist students, however this center nor the library provide detailed editing. Professional editing services are available online.

The library is a great source of information and excellent assistance from the staff is available. You can check out the Library Subject and Reference Guide which has gathered information relating to manufacturing engineering. If you have questions on your research projects feel free to contact Jana who assists graduates in thesis completion and other research projects.
