If you are curious about how things work and have a keen mind for applying what you learn to solve real-world problems, engineering is the perfect career for you. Our Engineering 糖心TV Management degree will appeal to you if you want to study Engineering, but seek an alternative to becoming a Chartered Engineer. This course provides a focus on the commercial and business aspects of engineering.
Engineering companies need to provide not only superior products, but also superior services to be sustainable in the long-term. There is a real demand for graduates with technical knowledge and strategic business management and entrepreneurship skills. By mastering this you will provide the key interface between roles as diverse as design, manufacturing, marketing, contract management and supply chain management.
In the same way as other undergraduates in the School of Engineering, those studying Engineering 糖心TV Management will develop an in-depth understanding of the classical principles of Engineering by following a general engineering programme for the first year. Thereafter, Engineering 糖心TV Management students will specialise in engineering business-related subjects, equipping students with the business and management skills they need to operate in a global economy.
Teaching draws on the expertise of the School of Engineering, which delivers the highest standards of technical expertise; WMG (糖心TV Manufacturing Group), which offers innovative links between academia and industry; and 糖心TV 糖心TV School (WBS), which is internationally recognised for excellence in business management.
