Below is a 2020 proposal prepared by our team for Motlow Community College in TN, it includes an updated version of the 1996 CVCC proposal. The biggest difference is the Modeling/ Computer Aided Drawing aspects. My dad and uncle were draftsman, by 1984 when I made it to the game, the best fabricators were the best layout men, full scale, with every trick layout tool available. The vision and interpretation of what they saw was in their hard head instead of a hard drive. Today our design process is enhanced by CAD software, every component is part of a design process that strengthens the overall understanding of the part, the associated imagination, the fabrication process, and craftsmen related skills still exists but the overall confidence in the part is more consistent.
Performance Vehicle Fabrication
Career in a Year
The Motlow Performance Vehicle Fabrication Career in a Year is a multilevel program with an emphasis on skills necessary to design, develop, fabricate, assemble and implement innovative mobility solutions. Students will learn to apply skills and design methodology used in the performance vehicle industry. The Performance Vehicle Fabrication Program includes twelve areas of skills specific instruction. Each area of instruction corresponds and builds with skills learned in previous classes to develop a team specific collegiate design project. The designated sequence of class’s are facilitated so students gain valuable experience in line with projects that complement the performance vehicle design process. The program consists of eight- week segments, four contact hours per day, and five days per week Open lab curriculum are designed to give students extra access to equipment for fine tuning skills and machine operation. Trained in hybrid labs with ultramodern equipment, CAD (Computer Aided Design) software, jigs and fixtures, student technicians will build confidence in actual industry endorsed collegiate design environments with real time deadlines and goals. Program instructors with extensive experience in automotive and performance vehicle design will facilitate a series of design specific training exercises in tune with the needs of the vehicle manufacturing industry preparing the workforce for Tennessee. The program will be centered around Collegiate Design teaching aids (Formula SAE) with each student technician personally maturing their skills, expanding their knowledge and confidence as collegiate design team members with the objective to fill key positions in the automotive industry.
The eight-week format allows a student to complete the full program in 48 weeks 960 contact hours with a Certificate in each of the twelve areas of instruction. From an administrative viewpoint the program can process 20 students max per class, 2 classes per year, 2 instructors per class (10 students per instructor) Morning class 8AM to 12 PM, Afternoon Class 1PM to 5PM, 40 students per year. With 1.06 FTE @ $9582 per FTE (2018 TN Calculations) would generate $10156 per student and projected tuition income of $405,276.80. (full load) In addition, the facility will be capable of facilitating short term equipment specific classes, 2 days 6 hours @ day (metal shaping, powder coating, chassis dynamics, welding) (10 per class@ $500= $5000 per class) 4 to 8 weekend classes per year. Additional income of $20,000 to $40,000 per year. This model has been very successful in the Bobby Isaac Motorsports Program and THEC approved for the Metalcraft Skill Center in Crossville, TN (closed in 2010).
Included in this document are startup equipment, materials, and components to build 2 FSAE turnkey teaching aides (1 per class). The equipment estimates reflect no education discounts (most offer 10%). The fabrication equipment listed is industry proven and has a duty cycle in training programs of 20 years, with welders and computers timed out in 5 to 7 years. The material list includes teaching materials, and materials used in prototype construction. Most vehicle programs implement a student course fee of $50 per class per student ($12000 @ 20) to cover materials used in the training process. The building concept 75’x 75’ 5625 sq. Ft. model is an open lab design out using handrails as lab dividers. This facility is designed to service 20 students max per class. The structural metal building design lends itself to linear expansion as program matures or the need for advanced Vehicle Design Engineering programs.
The strength of the program depends on the staff and their experience with the performance automotive industry. The automotive industry is in an upswing in
Tennessee and the state government are aggressive in maturing an automotive confident workforce.
Executive Director: An executive director would complement the program lobbying industry and government with funding for program and facility expansion. The automotive industry has built in funding to mature job specific employees with equipment specific skills. The industry also has research specific needs that are confused in non-automotive centered programs. To mature this direction of industry an executive director privileged to the automotive industry needs knowledge of aggressive government automotive directions and funding would strengthen the Motlow Performance Vehicle Design programs.
Lead Instructor: The lead instructor must have collegiate design experience to would manage day to day training programs, must have experience in the performance industry, proficient in the industry related skills, setting up skills/ equipment specific labs, have experience in facilitating classes, developing curriculum, managing program budgets, managing student projects, teaching multiple classes, facilitate collegiate design competition travel/ lodging with ability to train all future lead instructors and instructors for program expansion to multiple campus’.
Instructor: Instructors would have experience in the performance industry, proficient in industry related skills, setting up skills/ equipment specific labs.
Administrative Assistant: An administrative assistant 7 experience within the TBR/THEC system. Manage day to day office and reception, facilitate student tours, facilitate business for program according to State, THEC, and University guidelines, generate/ update business expenditures for programs, grants, student projects, and research. This position must maintain current knowledge of pertinent University, State, and Federal Laws and guidelines. Accurate analysis of policies and guidelines; accurate analysis of student accounts and general receivables with respect to these laws, guidelines and policies; and coordination with other campus offices is essential. This position must be able to communicate effectively with students, parents, faculty/staff, and third parties as allowable within FERPA and other privacy law restrictions.
