Academic titleManufacturing Systems Engineering, BEng Hons
Course descriptionManufacturing engineering is a key aspect of the wealth creation in industry which, to remain competitive, requires a constant supply of knowledgeable engineers familiar with the characteristics of the manufacturing system.
Sharing the first two years with the BEng Hons Mechanical Engineering degree, this broad-based programme focuses in the final year on manufacturing systems and technologies with courses in robotics, operations management and manufacturing systems engineering, together with a major individual project in manufacturing.
In addition to the traditional manufacturing sectors, this degree will provide students with interesting opportunities in innovative applications of the "systems" approach in other industrial and service sectors.
