We aim to produce graduates who can play key professional roles in the manufacturing industry amidst increasing global challenges. Students will acquire a broad understanding of the concepts, techniques and tools in the subject domain to enable them to identify and tackle diverse quality engineering problems in manufacturing and related sectors. In addition to engineering know-how, students will be armed with the skills ofquality control, quality assurance and reliability engineering, with additional training in trace element analysis, international standards and conformity testing, and compliance knowledge and skills. Furthermore, they will have extensive exposure to real-life industry scenarios through practical hands-on projects, industrial internship, and industry based final-year projects.
Start Your Career Here
Graduates will find career opportunities in a broad range of manufacturing and service industries. Typical starting positions include quality/quality assurance/quality control engineer/officer/controller, procurement/supplier quality engineer/officer, quality system/ISO9000 officer/controller, product testing/integrity engineer, customer/service quality officer, quality and safety engineer/officer, project engineer, quality analyst.
