BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PRODUCTION AND MANUFACTURING

ENGINEERING MANAGEMENT
(SASCED-P 07880102)

Introduction
Production and Manufacturing Engineering Management Program is concerned about the planning
and control of industrial processes to ensure smooth transition at all levels. Techniques of Production
and Manufacturing Engineering Management are employed in service as well as in manufacturing
industries. The Production and Manufacturing Engineering Management Program (PM) includes
responsibility for product and process design, planning and control issues involving capacity and
quality, and organization and supervision of the workforce. PM provides a strong foundation for
becoming a professional with knowledge in both engineering and management aspects of production
and their interaction. The engineering side includes operation and integration of manufacturing
technology, automation, maintenance and quality aspects, production development tools, and
methods as well as software. The management side covers systematic decision making, operations
strategy, planning, control and management of resources that are essential for achieving a sustainable
production environment. A Bachelor of Science (BS) in Production and Manufacturing Engineering
Management is awarded upon successful completion of 138 credit hours.

Program Vision
The Production and Manufacturing Engineering Management Program aspires to be among the
leading institutions in the Engineering Management discipline that prepares the next generation of
industry leaders.

Program Mission
To provide high-quality education consistent with international standards in production and
manufacturing engineering management to graduate engineers equipped with the needed
knowledge, values, and skills to serve the Middle East through an environment that emphasizes on
lifelong learning, sustainability, leadership, scientific research, and service to the community.

Program Goals (Program Educational Objectives)
