Objectives and Outcomes

Programme Education Objectives

The Program Educational Objectives of BEng (Ind. & Sys. Eng.)’s curriculum strive to equip graduates with the following attributes:

  1. Apply fundamental knowledge and skill sets required in the Industrial and Systems Engineering profession.
  2. Adopt a systems approach to design, develop, implement and innovate integrated systems that include people, technology, information, energy and resources taking into account global, societal, environmental and economic contexts.
  3. Work and communicate effectively with multi-disciplinary team members and different types of stakeholders.
  4. Recognize the need and continue to develop skills and knowledge to embrace changes in society and the profession.

Student Learning Outcomes

The Student Learning Outcomes (SLO) of BEng (Ind. & Sys. Eng.)’s curriculum strive to equip graduates with the following attributes:

SLO1 Engineering Knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, natural science, engineering fundamentals, and an engineering specialisation to the solution of complex engineering problems.
SLO2 Problem Analysis: Identify, formulate, research literature, and analyze complex engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences, and engineering sciences.
SLO3
Design/ development of Solutions:
Design solutions for complex engineering problems and design system components or processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate consideration for public health and safety, cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.
SLO4 Investigation: Conduct investigations of complex problems using research‐based knowledge and research methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of the information to provide valid conclusions.
SLO5 Modern Tool Usage: Create/ select and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools including prediction and modelling to complex engineering activities with an understanding of the limitations.
SLO6 The Engineer and Society: Apply reasoning informed by the contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to the professional engineering practice.
SLO7 Environment and Sustainability: Understand the impact of professional engineering solutions in a societal and environmental context and to demonstrate the knowledge of, and need for sustainable development.
SLO8 Ethics: Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms of the engineering practice.
SLO9 Individual and Team Work: Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in diverse teams and in multidisciplinary settings.
SLO10 Communication: Communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with the engineering community and with society at large, such as, being able to comprehend and write effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and receive clear instructions.
SLO11 Project Management and Finance: Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of engineering and management principles and economic decision‐making, and apply them to one’s own work, as a member and leader in a team, to manage projects and in multidisciplinary environments.
SLO12 Life-long Learning: Recognize the need for, and have the preparation and ability to engage in independent and life‐long learning in the broadest context of technological change.
