Everything that we use, eat, watch, hear or wear is created using the skills of production engineers and managers. Production engineers and managers do not just create technological solutions though, they also motivate, organise and interact with others to make sure products and services are provided when and where customers’ needs exist.
Manufacturing Engineering with Management blends a more technical engineering focus (such as mechanics, manufacturing, electronics, maths, programming, engineering calculations of a products design) with production and management principles, and technology such as operational improvement and quality management.
Year 1: study engineering mechanics, electrical circuits, heat and flow, total design, maths, production engineering and management.
Year 2: focus on engineering materials, electrical machines and control, design and manufacturing management, production techniques, analysing and improving operations.
Year 3: topics include innovation management, production and operations management, production techniques, product programming, mechatronics design and applications; option to study abroad.
Year 4: individual project and industry-based projects focused on business, process and/or strategy improvement and innovation in manufacturing sectors; Quality Management and Advanced Design classes.
Year 5 (MEng only): individual project, industrial group project, research dissertation and selection from advanced related modules.
