Diploma in Manufacturing Engineering

 

 

In the first and second year of studies, the subjects will give you a good foundation in manufacturing engineering knowledge. The training will leverage on information technology applications to enhance your effectiveness as a manufacturing professional. You will take up subjects such as Micro Systems & Nanotechnology, Product Innovation & Rapid Prototyping, Enterprise Resource Planning, Biomedical Manufacturing Technology, as well as other IT-based subjects.

 

In the third year of studies, you can choose from one of the following elective programmes:

 

The three-year course emphasizes hands-on training, with one whole semester set aside specially for the final-year project module in the third year. Moreover, to prepare you for the real world, the industrial attachment programme will give you a chance to work with companies on real-life projects.

 

The following are the subjects students have to take before being awarded the Diploma in Manufacturing Engineering:
