Optimizing Complex Industrial Operations and Capital Projects
The Department of Industrial Projects Management at Manhattan International University focuses on the unique challenges of managing projects in industrial settings such as manufacturing, energy, and infrastructure. Our programs combine engineering fundamentals with advanced management techniques, preparing students to lead complex capital projects, optimize production systems, and implement technological innovations in industrial environments. We develop professionals who can balance technical requirements with business objectives in high-stakes industrial contexts.

The curriculum covers project feasibility analysis, engineering economics, supply chain management, operations research, and maintenance management. Students learn to manage the entire project lifecycle from conception to commissioning, including scope definition, risk assessment, procurement strategy, and stakeholder management. The program emphasizes lean manufacturing principles, quality management systems (Six Sigma), and the integration of Industry 4.0 technologies such as IoT, robotics, and digital twins into industrial operations.

Case studies of major industrial projects, plant visits, and simulation exercises provide practical context. Our industry connections with manufacturing companies, energy providers, and engineering consultancies facilitate valuable placements and project work. Graduates are prepared for roles as project engineers, production managers, operations analysts, quality managers, and industrial consultants, capable of improving efficiency and driving innovation in industrial organizations.
