The FMS is technologically more sophisticated for the human resources who must make it work. A mismatch between human-resource development and industrialization is due to occur because of rapid lateral expansion of industrial activity in manufacturing sector. With long-term sustainability issues and continuing dependence on foreign technology expertise, capital, purchase of design, technology & operating procedures are to be resolved. Human resource development, equipment operator skills, manufacture of processing tools, products, processes & machinery, research and development are some of the issues resulting from higher level of technology implementation. In this situation, a contingency strategy for training engineers and other specialists with FMS should be considered in university learning with engineering education. These evolving trends in industry must be applied back into the engineering curriculum. Industry needs universities to respond with increase emphasis on design and manufacturing skills. If the desired experience exists inside the university and the experience level of the teaching staff with the technological approach is high, its use should be considered and /or projects involving the proposed approach should be developed and implemented early. With FMS training in the university laboratories, the increasing capability of engineers provides a distinct advantage for manufacturing industries. 2009-03-11T03:00:44Z 2009-03-11T03:00:44Z 2007-02-14 Working Paper http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/4939 en Regional Symposium on Engineering Education in South East Asia and the Pacific (AEESEAP 2007) Association of Engineering Education in South East Asia and the Pacific
