Bachelor of Engineering (BEng) in Manufacturing Technology
The Bachelor of Engineering (BEng) in Manufacturing Technology focuses on manufacturing technology design and operation for all major classes of manufacturing processes, including casting, machining, forming, joining and additive manufacturing; and for all relevant classes of materials including polymers, composites, ceramics and metals.
This study is underpinned by fundamental theories of physical principles including thermodynamics, statics and dynamics, numerical methods, control and instrumentation.
Graduates will be able to apply a broad understanding of technical, economic, social and environmental implications of manufacturing technology, to contribute to a competitive and sustainable manufacturing industry.
