Programme Aims:

This programme is designed to meet the needs of present day engineering students with diverse science background. It aims to equip them with basic technical and engineering knowledge; analytical, managerial, and behavioural skills; and prepare them for life-long growth within the field of Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management. The BEIEEM programme prepares graduates for a variety of careers in the continually evolving manufacturing, engineering and services industries of today.  

In addition to the out of discipline or gateway education studies and language proficiency, to equip BEIEEM graduates with the core competence needed, this programme of studies include the following components : 

• University level mathematics and essential computer studies
• Fundamental engineering sciences and design
• Production technology and processes
• Industrial engineering and engineering management concepts, techniques and tools
• Problem solving, teamwork and integration skills development 

Programme Educational Objectives: 

A BEIEEM graduate

• will have a good understanding of the issues and relationships between the management tasks of planning, organizing, directing, controlling and the human elements in industrial, service and research organizations;
• will have the necessary knowledge and skills to deal with the uncertain nature of these industrial management tasks and processes; and
• is able to integrate these management tasks and processes into effective management systems in different industrial or technological environments.

Programme Intended Learning Outcomes (PILOs): 

Upon successful completion of this Programme, as an engineering graduate, a BEIEEM graduate should attain:

• an ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering
• an ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data
• an ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability
