Course 10-ENG: Bachelor of Science in Engineering with Concentration
Manufacturing Design
This concentration covers concepts, methodologies, algorithms, and software tools for the analysis and design of advanced manufacturing systems. The state of the art in advanced manufacturing has been enabled by reductions in the cost of computer hardware and by the increased availability of powerful software for process simulation and systems analysis and design.
Note: Two of the four concentration courses can be selected to count towards the mechanical engineering minor (https://meche.mit.edu/education/undergraduate/meche-minor), which requires four additional courses.
Students in this concentration are required to take
10.490 Integrated Chemical Engineering
