Program focus
This eight unit program provides graduates with knowledge of
selected basic concepts and skills associated with engineering in
areas such as sustainable development, technical risk assessment,
and engineering asset management. The program aims to produce graduates
who are equipped with essential management knowledge and an appreciation
of the latest technologies in addition to their initial specialisation.
The skill set would therefore allow the graduate to manage more complex
technological or engineering businesses.
