Program Objectives & Student Outcomes

• Program Objectives

1. Be practicing engineers in the field of production and services, who are able to

(i) Design or redesign industrial systems

Create a new design for industrial systems in production and service from small to medium size. For some special cases, new designs for large systems will also be considered

Analyze and research existing systems of production and service to see whether it needs redesigning or not for increasing productivity and efficiency.

(ii) Operate and manage industrial systems

Operate effectively industrial systems in production and services by efficiency combination all system’s resources (people, finance, machines, etc.)

(iii) Improve the existing industrial systems

Detect, simulate, and get results to determine the optimization index for new products and services. Propose necessary changes to improve existing systems.

(iv) Support for wise decision making

Analyze, evaluate, and simulate managing models to give alterative solutions as single-criteria and multi-criteria for supporting managers in making a decision

2. Engage in lifelong learning to maintain and enhance professional skills
3. Work effectively with people and demonstrate leadership, professional skills, and ethical behavior in the workplace
4. Fulfill the needs of the community and industrial sector of Vietnam in solving technical and management problems using industrial and systems engineering principles, tools, and techniques.
