development (up to $9,000 per course)Developing funding model for blended/flipped course supportSlide7
Goals for 2013-14: UPDATES
Increase the number of graduate students who have enrolled or accepted admission by 5
%
1,200+ graduate students expected for fall 2014
Graduate
research student increase initiative provides
recruitment funds to increase numbers — college and departments provide funds 1st year; supported by researchers in 2nd yearAccelerating Collaboration in Research Initiative provides funds to develop new ideas and/or increase collaboration not pursued by others due to lack of time
or resourcesSlide8
Goals for 2013-14: UPDATES

Goals for 2013-14: UPDATES
The Digital Lab Guiding Approach
Three Technology Focus Areas
Utilization of
high-performance
computing to model materials, products and processes to enable
“
design with manufacturing in mind
”
.
INTELLIGENT MACHINING
(IM)
ADVANCED ANALYSIS
(AA)
Integration of smart sensors and controls to enable equipment to automatically sense and understand current production environment in order to conduct
“
self-aware manufacturing
”
.
ADVANCED MANUFACTURING ENTERPRISE
(AME)
Agile and robust manufacturing strategies and integrated capabilities that dramatically reduce the cost and time of producing complex systems and parts.
OPEN SOURCE PLATFORM
An open source technology system across the entire
manufacturing
value chain.
DIGITAL
COMMONS
A 'hub and spoke' model, where the 'hub' will be the Digital Lab for Manufacturing based in
Chicago,
and the 'spokes' will be all the applied research on the manufacturing floors of our partners across the US.
