The College-Industry Council on Material Handling Education (CICMHE) is an academic/industry council of the Material Handling Industry[1] (MHI) that promotes increased awareness of material handling and logistics through a variety of educational and research activities. CICMHE was founded in 1952 and has served to connect practitioners with academics that teach and do research in material handling.[2]
Organization
The main body of the Council is composed of fifteen college and university educators that are elected to a four-year term and is governed by a four-member executive committee. Additional members are drawn from material handling equipment manufacturers, distributors, users and consultants, representatives of the business press, and professional staff members of organizations concerned with material handling education. CICMHE is organized into two working committees:
- The Events Committee plans and executes structured events to facilitate learning and research, promote knowledge transfer, provide exposure to and awareness of the field, address current industry needs and trends, and strengthen the bridge between industry and academia.
- The Projects Committee initiate and conduct projects to transform and modernize existing educational offerings, create and maintain new educational offerings, assess usage and effectiveness of offerings, identify, incubate, and foster research in material handling and related domains; and leverage connections between CICMHE and councils, product sections, and affiliated trade associations.
Activities
CICMHE sponsors the following major activities for students, teachers, and researchers:
Material Handling and Logistics Classroom Day
In order to give students a unique opportunity to see the latest material handling and logistics solutions in person, CICMHE has partnered with the Material Handling Equipment Distributors Association (MHEDA) to offer a special program for students and professors in engineering, technology, manufacturing, operations, supply chain and logistics at the MODEX[3] and ProMat[4] trade shows sponsored alternate years by MHI.
Material Handling Teachers Institute
CICMHE sponsors a Material Handling Teachers Institute[5] every two years for current and future faculty members who teach material handling in two-and four-year schools of technology, as well as in schools of engineering at four-year universities. The Teachers Institute is held in the summer of odd-numbered years.
International Material Handling Research Colloquium
Since 1990, CICMHE has sponsored an International Research Colloquium[6] that provides a forum for academic researchers to both present their work and to interact with leading companies within the industry. The research presented at each Colloquium is documented in a volume in the series Progress in Material Handling Research. Like the Teachers Institute, the Colloquium has been conducted on an every two-year cycle, with the Colloquium being offered in the summer of even-numbered years.
Student Design Competition
Since 1994, CICMHE has co-sponsored, along with the Order Fulfillment Solutions (OFS) council of MHI,[7] a team design competition for students interested in the design and analysis of material handling systems.[8] Cash prizes of $2000, $1500, and $1000 are awarded to the first, second, and third place teams, plus $500 for each placing department.
