This Advanced Diploma course aims to produce engineering graduates with a sound knowledge in materials and manufacturing engineering at the professional levels. The study of the relationship between the structure and properties of materials and how the structure can be modified and controlled by various chemical, thermal and mechanical treatments form a significant part of the course. The course is so designed that graduates are equipped with sufficient technical knowledge to qualify both as a Materials or Production Engineer. Graduates will also acquire knowledge in management and quality control techniques so as to be more competent in the industrial or business environment.
| Academic and Professional Progression |
The Advanced Diploma in Technology
(Materials and Manufacturing Engineering) is
equivalent to a Bachelor Degree. |
|
| a) | Advanced Diploma graduates have been accepted
into postgraduate studies in many universities. |
| b) | The Advanced Diploma in Technology
(Materials and Manufacturing
Engineering) is recognised as suitable for
progression to a Sheffield Hallam
University (SHU), UK degree with prior
credit. Advanced Diploma graduates of
this programme can obtain the BEng
(Hons) Materials and Manufacturing
Engineering Degree from SHU by
completing the final semester of the
programme at the university. |
