Özet
Constantly advancing technology is getting more rapid, integrated and flexible. Today's cutting-edge technology in manufacturing where the entire production process is controlled by computers is specified as a Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) system which differs from traditional manufacturing technologies in processing, equipment and methodology. It is, therefore, important to educate potential engineers with the necessary skills required in today's technologically developed industry. In this study, CIM laboratory settings and applications in Turkish engineering education are surveyed in an investigation of the curricula used in these laboratories. In this context, the CIM curriculum in Kirikkale University is described. Improvement areas in CIM education and usage of laboratories are discussed. The overview of this curriculum will serve as a framework in curriculum design and give important ideas on improving the curriculum for institutions that already have CIM laboratory or are considering setting one up.
