The tour was organized by Dr. Aldo McLean, Assistant Professor of Engineering Management and Technology. \u201cAccording to Nissan\u2019s latest information,\u201d said Dr. McLean, \u201cworkers assemble over 600,000 vehicles each year at the Nissan Plant in Smyrna, Tennessee. It\u2019s a great learning opportunity to tour the site and see how they do it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The 5.9 million-square-foot facility \u201clooked like a gigantic engine\u2014the production place was very compact, making very efficient use of space,\u201d remarked Dana Gausch, a graduate student in Engineering Management. \u201cThings were happening on multiple levels,\u201d she said. \u201cWhile welding, assembly, and other operations were taking place on the main floor, cars were transported above to and from the painting section.\u201d Though she wished to have seen certain processes more closely, she said that it was good to get the big picture of production stages. \u201cIt\u2019s very interesting to learn how a car takes shape, from tin foil to the finished product.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One of four Nissan manufacturing facilities in the U.S., the Smyrna assembly plant opened in 1983 bringing automotive production to Tennessee for the first time. Their website boasts that \u201cthe plant has become a force for economic development, creating thousands of well-paying jobs and inspiring other auto companies and suppliers to set up operations in the state.\u201d Since it opened, the plant has produced more than 10,700,000 vehicles. Currently, it employs some 8,400 workers with an annual payroll of over $290 million. Over the 30 years since the facility was built, the plant has grown significantly, becoming a global manufacturer.<\/p>\n<p>The tour was well organized and greatly enjoyed by the group. \u201cIt was interesting how the quite long tram that transports visitors makes its way and integrates with the production flow,\u201d noted Gausch. Looking for ways to enhance students\u2019 classroom learning with opportunities to observe engineering functions in practice, Dr. McLean often schedules tours to large-scale manufacturing and distribution facilities. He\u2019ll likely plan another Nissan Smyrna Vehicle Assembly Plant tour in the future, as well as tours to other nearby facilities. \u201cI want to create awareness in our students of large-scale operations around the state and region,\u201d McLean said, \u201cand I hope the organizations we visit, such as Nissan, will see that UTC is interested in serving them.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A group of twelve students with emphases in Engineering Management, Industrial Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Chemical Engineering toured the Nissan Smyrna Vehicle Assembly Plant on March 17, 2016.
