General Info

What will I study?
You will follow the diploma curriculum that includes studies in basic sciences and computer-aided drafting with some workshop works. In the following years the lecture program is common with the basic mechanical engineering and manufacturing processes as well as an industrial training during the semester break. The diploma programme also includes a deeper study of manufacturing management, additional specialist subjects and finishing it with a final year design project.
How will I learn?
Teaching is delivered through a combination of techniques including lectures, small group and individual project work, labs, tutorials, computing skills, design assignments, presentations, a teambuilding course and business management tasks that are integrated together throughout the program. An extensive design project, including studio work, helps to integrate the various engineering skills and to understand the business and social context within which a design process takes place.
What are my career prospects?
This diploma program has a strong emphasis on developing strengths in problem solving, numeracy, communication and management. These are transferable skills much in demand in a wide variety of occupations. Your choice of career is by no means limited to the manufacturing industry, but that is where your skills will be most immediately relevant and where most graduates obtain employment. Graduates of this program can build their career as manufacturing technical assistant, technical specialist or entrepreneur. Graduates can also further their study in Bachelor degree program either locally or abroad.
