Our vision is to be the best to educate the best. We aim to provide world-class education for: 1) technical experts; 2) technical managers; in order to produce leaders, entrepreneurs, innovators to meet the needs of current and future manufacturing industries.
Manufacturing Engineering can be defined as the transformation of raw materials into useful products through the most economical and competitive methods, making full use of the scientific principles and innovative designs to gain wide-spread acceptance.
Manufacturing technologies are currently undergoing rapid changes due to the short technology cycle of about three years. Therefore, our graduates should have a life-long learning attitude ingrained in their minds, and equipped with the latest skills in material science, physics, chemistry, mechanical engineering, industrial engineering, and health and safety regulations, with a dose of engineering management for rapid advancement. We strive to be the hub of manufacturing science and technology in the Asian Pacific region.
To ensure that we can teach from strength, we are establishing world-class research facilities with technical expertise in key research areas. We shall continue to increase the Department's intellectual capitals and academic credentials through recruiting worldwide for the best minds to join the Department.
