Stream Outline
Manufacturing engineers are involved in all facets of production and have a broad knowledge of the design and operation of machines and systems, which means they often manage multidisciplinary teams. This program integrates engineering, technology and management, providing students with a grounding in everything from product design to manufacture, sales and distribution.
The specialisation in Manufacturing Engineering and Management is defined by a core of disciplinary knowledge, advanced disciplinary knowledge and an advanced research component. It provides a solid postgraduate coursework program for the professional manufacturing engineer wishing to upgrade their skills or extend their knowledge.
ENTRY REQUIREMENTS
Students need a recognised four year Bachelor degree in a relevant discipline of engineering with a minimum 65% average* in one of the following:
