NMU Engineering Technology Department

NMU Engineering Technology Department’s 3D printers, under the leadership of Professor Joe Routhier, is taking part in a local movement to get face shields to UPHS Marquette. This movement will eventually expand to other UP and Michigan hospitals until all the necessary face shields have been produced.

NMU is participating with the online group called “Yooper Makers United”. To date the group has produced over 900 face shields.

Welcome back students and faculty! It’s going to be a beautiful day!

We hope everyone is enjoying the summer🌞.

Today we are grateful for our STUDENTS! To celebrate, the Engineering Technology faculty and staff hosted a cookout. Burgers and hotdogs filled the grill, accompanied by chips, cookies and cold pop. Kathy had fun giving away some coffee mug door prizes. The machine shop was magically transformed into our dining area. We had a lot of fun and hope our students loved it like we did! Thanks to everyone that helped with set up and clean up! Wishing our graduates success in the future, and to our underclassmen, we wish you a great summer! ❤️

Today we welcome students from Gwinn High School and Negaunee High School! They are competing in a CAD competition! Also a warm welcome to their coaches and guests. The Engineering Technology department is happy to host this event!

Students from the Republic-Michigamme Schools in Mr. Matthew Barbercheck's class (NMU alumni) visited the Engineering Technology Department on February 15th. Dr. Bob Marlor gave a tour and presentation in his Materials Testing lab. The students got to perform their own tests on steel pieces on various pieces of equipment. In addition, Brad O'Hagan from the NMU SAE Baja Team gave the students an overview on what the club is all about and talked of the team's upcoming race this weekend in Houghton. Here are a few pictures from today!
