The Production Engineering and Management study program has been developed on the basis of the so-called engineer-manager profile which emerged recently and is now frequently found in the industrial sector, and translating this figure into a coherent university program that is also present in various European universities. The course prepares students to take up senior positions in the production departments of medium-sized local and international companies. The focus is primarily on functional areas concerned with technology application and management techniques like design, development, production control, sales techniques, logistics, quality control, etc.
