Course Aim and Objectives In the past two decades, manufacturing industry worldwide has experienced the most radical changes since the industrial revolution. These changes in clude globalization, mass customization, enterprise agility/ supply chain management, continuous innovation, and increasing application of collaborative design and manufacture. The challenges of a multidisciplinary work environment require a new generation of engineers that are highly specialised but at the same time need to understand product life cycle from inception (design) to the end (recycling & reusability). For the engineering and academic community, therefore, it is essential to train and educate the next generation of engineers who will be able to work in the challenging environment where a systems approach to problem solving is crucial. For example, appreciation of critical decision-making under uncertainty, application of a combination hardware software technology to address Enterprise Resource Planning issues, development of manufacturing techniques, usage and creation of advanced mate r - ial such as alloys, manufacturing processes, and dealing with shopfloor automation. The programme is designed to enable its students to learn, understand and implement the principles and techniques and to become high quality innovative manufacturing and systems engineers who can meet the knowledge and information needs of the modern enterprise in the international/national/ regional context. Modules Module1: Systems Modelling and Simulation (Dr Alireza Mousavi) The aim of this module is to encourage systematic thinking and acquiring knowledge and skills to model and analyse modern complex systems. Critically evaluate and implement principles of systems approach and analysis. Describe, evaluate and appropriately apply systems concepts to real world industrial problems and to design, plan and solve arising problems that day-to-day management of such systems encounter. Gain the required skills for modelling, simulating and critically analysing performance of deterministic and stochastic systems. The candidate will deploy the latest techniques and tools in Discrete Event Simulation to capture the interactions and negotiations between components of enterprise systems. We use the simulation and modelling software tools such as Arena as a tool for this purpose. page 2 Master of Science in Advanced Manufacturing Systems TAE

Design for Manufacture and Process selection: including the relationship between design features and process capabilities, manufacturing system selection to produce a given design. The module introduces the Economics for Manufacture subject which consists of topics such as Inventory Costing, Economic Order Quantities, Costing machine tool selection and cost of production strategy. Module 6: Advanced Manufacturing Measurement (Dr Qing Ping Yang) This module aims to help students to gain an in-depth understanding of basic measurement theory, operating principle of modern measurement techniques, capabilities of practical measuring machines and their applications in advanced manufacturing. The key topics include basics of measurement systems, measurement errors, evaluation of measurement uncertainty, precision displacement measurement, coordinate measuring machines (CMMs), surface measurement and scanning probe microscopes (STM/AFM). Module 7: Quality Management and Reliability (Dr Joe Au and Dr Qing Ping Yang) The aim of this module is to provide an in-depth understanding of the principles of modern quality assurance which underpin the discipline and their applications in engineering, manufacturing and enterprise. The module intends to provide a professional-level working knowledge of the advanced techniques of reliability engineering and an ability to apply them to improving the maintenance, the maintainability and the safety of existing and proposed plant in their workplace. Module 8: Global Manufacturing (Prof Kai Cheng and Dr Rebecca DeCoster) Global Manufacturing Main topics of study: enterprise systems for supporting the product manufacturing, and development and lifecycle; the value proposition for a product innovation; the marketing/services/ supply chains and their interface; innovation project forecast and discounting for the time value of money; e-manufacturing and operations; digital enterprise t echnology (DET); virtual organisations and integration; selection and use of DET and emanufacturing tools; global manufacturing implementation issues and methodology; global manufacturing concept, methodology and implementation issues; case studies on global manufacturing operations and best practices. Master Thesis Following the taught part of the programme and reflecting individual interests, the Master Thesis is an in-depth study of a manufacturing problem or situation, requiring a high standard of investigation and presentation. The analysis of a real problem is expected, frequently involving a company or workplace. Close liaison between the University, the student and, where appropriate, the company is essential when selecting a topic which has a suitable academic content and an appropriate scope, relevance and timescale. Some students may wish their Master Thesis to be considered by the Chartered Engineering Institutions to satisfy requirements for corporate membership. In this case, a further set of criteria will have to be satisfied and you should contact the appropriate institute on the best way to proceed. page 3 Master of Science in Advanced Manufacturing Systems TAE
