WHY STUDY PRODUCTION ENGINEERING?
Because it is an engineering of industrial production processes aimed at generating added value on raw materials and inputs, to obtain products and services that fully satisfy customer requirements, in which the design, installation, operation and optimization of production systems is applied. transformation. The Production Engineer, due to his multidisciplinary training and global vision of the organization, has professional skills to:
- Combine the management of natural, human, financial and technological resources in the process environment.
- Reconcile production operations with the requirements and continuous changes operating today.
- Design, install, operate, control and optimize production or transformation systems.
- Design and implement integrated quality, environmental, food safety and industrial safety management plans and systems.
- Prepare, evaluate and implement investment projects.
Production Engineering students have the opportunity to actively participate in the research projects of the associated research centers: the CIPI (Center for Research in Industrial Processes) or the CIAA (Center for Agricultural and Agroindustrial Research). With this boost, graduates of the program are prepared to continue their postgraduate studies in prestigious foreign universities, in accordance with our internationalization model. Production Engineering professionals can opt for different areas of specialization, such as: Industrial Management, Environment, Food, Industrial Biotechnology, Quality Management, Project Preparation and Evaluation, among others, and are qualified to perform engineering and management activities in:
- Manufacturing industries (food and beverages, leather, glass, paper, biotechnology, cosmetics, etc.).
- Commercial and service organizations, nationally and internationally.
- Public or Private Institutions in the areas of Development, Production, Energy, Environment, Technology; as well as as an independent worker, as a consultant and/or in starting their own business.
