Manufacturing

The manufacturing industry involves a large-scale production of goods that converts inputs such as raw materials, or components into outputs that are finished goods. Manufacturing technology often uses production or assembly lines equipped with machines, manufacturing robots, computers, supported by humans. The production process moving from one workstation to the next is creating a value-added with the goal to manufacture the final goods as process output.

This massive discipline with endless manufacturing processes involved is an important part of the global economy. Somebody needs to manufacture goods, later to be sold and consumed.

You can learn about different manufacturing processes and become an Expert in those that are of your interest. You would be then responsible for manufacturing process design, maintenance, or production management. The range of courses will also teach you about lean manufacturing which plays a crucial role in a waste reduction for better efficiency. Experienced professionals can advance their careers and lead production teams as Production Managers.
