Aims of Major

This major emphasizes the integration of basic knowledge in intelligent manufacturing systems, innovative process design and automation, advanced manufacturing technologies, systems modeling and optimization, and quality and reliability engineering, with particular emphasis on electronics and semiconductor manufacturing. This multi-disciplinary program aims to produce graduates who are capable of using cutting-edge engineering knowledge, computational, experimental and analytical techniques to plan, design, implement and improve technology-based manufacturing and operations systems and enterprises.

Intended Learning Outcomes of Major (MILOs)

Upon successful completion of this major, students should be able to:

  1. Apply knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering, and intelligent manufacturing engineering to analyzing and improving operations systems and performance of enterprises, particularly in electronics and semiconductor manufacturing.
  2. Design and conduct experiments, and analyze and interpret data that are relevant to the planning, processes, logistics, and operations systems in an enterprise, particularly in electronics and semiconductor manufacturing.
  3. Design processes, systems, products and services, to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability.
  4. Function effectively and responsibly in multi-disciplinary teams to achieve synergetic benefits.
  5. Identify, evaluate, formulate, solve engineering problems relevant to the planning, processes, logistics and operations systems in an enterprise, and undertake projects of discovery and innovation.
  6. Explain professional and ethical responsibility.
  7. Demonstrate effective communication.
  8. Have knowledge in contemporary issues and awareness of the impact of engineering solutions in a broad, global and societal context.
  9. Recognize the need for, and an ability to engage in life-long learning.
  10. Use necessary engineering and IT skills and tools for engineering practice, discovery and innovation.
