College of Engineering – Academics

Offered

The AUM College of Engineering contributes to the vital process of transfer of technology and institutional development of public and private sectors through providing well-rounded, multidisciplinary-educated and client-centered technical professionals. The college enables graduates to achieve employability right after graduation by maintaining an application and hands-on orientation. Theory and application, specialization and general education are harmoniously integrated to ensure graduates possess the conceptual and behavioral skills they need to be valued by their employers and are able to pursue the option of higher education, then research, and academic careers.

Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering

The industrial engineering program at AUM was designed in collaboration with Purdue University. It prepares students for careers in multiple aspects of industrial engineering, and enables them to perform technical, managerial, and consultant functions that require scientific and engineering backgrounds. Courses cover areas of manufacturing, facilities design, work analysis and design, operations research, process control, production and service systems management, as well as systems simulation. The curriculum is designed to prepare students for direct entry into the engineering profession as well as for graduate studies.

Objectives

  • Develop the students’ intellectual thinking and expand their general knowledge of a wide array of issues in multiple disciplines to cultivate their social and civic responsibilities and ensure that they appreciate the moral, ethical and legal implications of engineering decisions;
  • Enhance the students’ ability to communicate by oral, graphic, written and electronic means to describe engineering challenges and their solutions;
  • Prepare students to solve unstructured problems through analytical means and to synthesize, analyze, and critically evaluate their solutions;
  • Develop the students’ engineering design, analysis, and evaluation skills in human factors and ergonomics, information systems, production engineering, operations research, systems simulation, and manufacturing and service system processes and tools;
  • Develop hands-on competencies through work integrated learning.
