Biochemical Pathways and Metabolic Engineering

Plant Biotechnology and Genetic Modification

Discover plant biotechnology and genetic modification through immersive XR simulations, focusing on breeding, genetic engineering, and crop improvement. Apply virtual labs to create genetically modified plants with enhanced traits, explore transformation techniques, and address ethical considerations in GMO development.

CNC Machine Programming and Operation

CNC Machine Programming and Operation trains students on Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines, essential in modern manufacturing for automated machining. Students will virtually program CNC machines to cut, mill, or shape materials according to specific designs, and simulate the generation and execution of G-code. The course includes 3D visualization of machining paths, with real-time feedback on tool wear, precision, and cycle times to optimize machining processes.

Energy Audits and Efficiency Simulations

Learn how to conduct energy audits and recommend energy-efficient upgrades for electrical systems. In this simulation, students will perform virtual energy audits for homes or businesses, analyzing energy consumption from lighting, HVAC, and appliances. They will then recommend electrical system upgrades, such as LED lighting or energy-efficient appliances. Real-time feedback will be provided on cost savings, energy usage reduction, and the environmental impact of their recommendations.

Robotics and Automation Simulation

Robotics and Automation Simulation course allows students to explore the principles of robotics and automation in industrial settings. Through interactive XR simulations, students can program robotic arms, manipulators, and other equipment to perform tasks such as welding, assembly, and material handling. Real-time feedback on performance, efficiency, and safety ensures a hands-on, engaging learning experience, preparing students for real-world automation challenges.

Water Heater Installation and Maintenance

Explore the installation and maintenance of water heaters, including gas, electric, and tankless systems. This simulation allows for virtual installation of various water heaters, connecting supply and drainage lines, pressure relief valves, and gas lines (when applicable). It also provides practice in maintaining water heaters by flushing tanks, replacing heating elements, and adjusting thermostats. Real-time feedback is provided on system efficiency, safety, and troubleshooting issues like leaks or temperature fluctuations.
