Develop the foundational skills necessary for global manufacturing excellence and competitiveness with the MicroMasters Principles of Manufacturing Credential, designed and delivered by the world's number one Mechanical Engineering department at MIT.
Build your career with the credential or use it as credits toward a master's degree by applying to MIT's world-renowned combined Design and Advanced Manufacturing Engineering Master's program.
This program provides students with a fundamental foundation for understanding and controlling rate, quality, and cost in a manufacturing business.
The Manufacturing Principles are a set of elements common to all manufacturing industries that revolve around the concepts of flow and variations.
These principles have emerged from working closely with manufacturing industries at both the research and operational levels.
Aimed at graduate engineers, product designers, and technology developers with an interest in a career in advanced manufacturing, the program will help students understand and apply these principles to product and process design, factory and supply chain design, and manufacturing operations. factory.
This curriculum focuses on the analysis, characterization, and control of flow and variation at different levels of the company through the following subject areas: Variation and control of unit processes: Modeling and control of temporal and spatial variation in unit processes Variation and control of the system at the factory level: Modeling and controlling the flows in manufacturing systems with stochastic elements and inputs.
Supply Chain: System Variation and Control: How to Operate and Design Optimal Manufacturing-Centered Supply Chains.
