Production Engineering and Operations Management Coventry University

Overview

The aim of this Master’s Production Engineering and Operations Management at Coventry University is to advance your abilities within the area of production engineering and operations management so you can assist manufacturing companies to meet these demands head-on – achieving competitive advantage and making an impact on profits and sustainability.

Quick Facts:

• We will encourage you to evaluate engineering design and process choices around materials, production technologies and production processes. You will then have the opportunity to design solutions to complex production engineering and operations management problems using 3D computer solid modelling and the latest industry-standard software, interfacing with current leading production machines.
• We also aim to cover some of the latest industry trends around automation techniques, including various robot types, robot programming, programmable logic controllers, sensors, vision systems, motion control, safety systems, and design for manufacture. You will have the opportunity to gain practical experience in online and offline robot programming.

Upon successful completion, you will have knowledge of:

• The evaluation of current and emerging materials and their associated manufacturing processes and technologies.

• The optimisation of production engineering and production operations management using appropriate mathematical, statistical and simulation methods, recognising the limitations of these methods.

• The critical appreciation of the engineering and management challenges in global production operations including the ethical, legal, social, environmental and economic constraints.

• The systematic understanding of digital manufacturing technologies and approaches and the impact that digital artefacts and digital data has on the competitiveness of manufacturing environments.
