The Bachelor of Science in Manufacturing (Manufacturing Engineering) is the only four-year degree program in manufacturing engineering in western Pennsylvania.
It examines methods to design, plan, develop, improve, and manage the machinery, processes, and systems that produce the products we see and use on a daily basis. Students learn about materials, processes, assembly methods, production equipment, systems capabilities, and quality standards that ensure products meet customers' expectations.
