Manufacturing Engineering - Boston University

Manufacturing Engineering from Boston University is a Campus Bachelor Manufacturing Technology degree that prepares you for a Engineering career. The Department of Manufacturing Engineering (MFG) at Boston University is a truly interdisciplinary enterprise. It was the first manufacturing engineering program in the United States and remains in the top tier of academic programs in this field. Teaching and research focus on engineering design, manufacturing processes and materials, and the management and control of man-made systems. The program encompasses a broad range of high-technology application domains, such as microelectronics, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), telecommunications, nanoelectronics, fuel cells, green manufacturing , materials, and manufacturing - and service-system supply chains. MFG offers considerable coursework in the area of management science, laying the groundwork for careers involving decision-making, logistics, and management of engineering enterprises. Manufacturing engineers pioneered the sensor in your car’s air bag, the print head in your inkjet printer, and the optical switch that routes your phone calls. MFG also works on manufacturing for mini jet engines, advanced telescopes, artificial inner ears, microprocessors, and green manufacturing . Manufacturing engineering undergraduates learn how to write on the head of a pin in a micromachining project, control a robot, make complex 3-D models on a computer, and transfer a design to a high-speed machine tool that will produce the part. Students engage in a senior capstone project working with an industrial partner to solve an actual manufacturing engineering problem at their company. This invaluable experience puts graduates in an unusually strong position for employment, with various skills that are in great demand. View more details on Boston University .
