The Advanced Manufacturing Master’s Degree Program core objective is to provide engineers who have chosen to pursue advanced manufacturing as a career path with the tools and knowledge needed for success. Students participating in the Advanced Manufacturing program will:

• Learn different models of manufacturing process and problem solutions
• Enhance core knowledge in quality control, probability, and statistics
• Build expertise in creating complex models of physical systems
• Build control systems from physical models
• Integrate supply chain and financial management into strategic decisions

Program Overview

Tailored for busy schedules, these two-year programs provide the unique opportunity to pursue a master’s degree while continuing to work full-time. What’s more, you will receive the same Master’s Degree that a traditional, full-time graduate student at The University of Texas at Austin receives. Students are presented with the best the top ranked Cockrell School of Engineering has to offer: rigorous coursework that encompasses the latest advances and core fundamentals. It is the combination of challenging curriculum, immediately applicable tools, and national recognition that prepares tomorrow’s leaders for success while equipping them with an educational experience ranked among the finest in the nation.

The Advanced Manufacturing Master's Degree program, offered by the Department of Mechanical Engineering in conjunction with the Advanced Manufacturing Center, provides students with the tools and knowledge needed for success in the advanced manufacturing industry. This specialized program is taught by both academia and industry experts, and is reinforced by hands-on learning in laboratories. The program will enable students to gain an understanding of the modeling of manufacturing processes, statistics and statistical process control, physical modeling & design of manufacturing control systems, and professional responsibility.

Upon completion of all the program requirements, a student is awarded a Master of Science in Engineering degree with a major in Mechanical Engineering and a concentration in Advanced Manufacturing Engineering. The program is administered by the Center for Lifelong Engineering Education (CLEE).
