INTRODUCTION

In line with the 3rd Industrial Malaysia Plan (IMP3) aiming forthe innovative and creative human capital development, via matching talent to expertise with market demand, Bachelor of Manufacturing Engineering Technology (Supply Chain Management) with Honours for polytechnic is developed to give balance emphasis on theoretical and practical aspects. The Eleventh Malaysia Plan was drawn to produced 60% out of 1.5 million workers was in TVET sector. Until now a total of 69,475 (51%) of the 136,062 technical education and vocational training (TVET) graduates in Malaysia are working as professionals and skilled workers. Thus, to keep abreast with rapid demand in TVET sector, Department of Polytechnic and Community College Education (DPCCE) progressively collaborates with major industry players in the country in developing the curriculum. The programme will take eight semesters to complete, six academic semesters at their respective polytechnics and two semesters of work-based learning mainly at supply chain companies during the final year. This programme complies with Engineering Technologist requirement under the purview of the Board of Engineer Malaysia (BEM).

Work-Based Learning (WBL) is a concept which provides students with the opportunity to enhance technical manufacturing with supply chain management specialisation knowledge and skills by eliminating the walls of classrooms learning in a specific period of attendance at the supply chain industries. Expanding the classroom learning, WBL creates real working environment experience as well as providing employment opportunity to the student.

Goals and benefits of WBL:-

• Active participation of academic staff, industries, students and communities.
• Development of learning and workplace competencies.
• Improvement of student employability.
• Assist students in identifying career pathways.

SYNOPSIS

The Bachelor of Manufacturing Engineering Technology (Supply Chain Management) with Honours is designed to cover the current wide discipline of manufacturing engineering with the area of specialisation in supply chain. The broad-based engineering foundation courses includes Engineering Mathematics, Principles of Electric and Electronics, Computer Aided Design, Material Technology, Manufacturing Workshop Practice and Entrepreneurship provides versatility to the graduates. The programme also emphases the area of supply chain specialisation in manufacturing engineering. Some of the specialised courses include Production Planning and Control, Material Handling, Logistic and Supply Chain Management.
