Overview

The Manufacturing Engineering degree at The University of New Mexico requires 33 credit hours. A Master of Science (M.S.) degree with a Manufacturing concentration is offered via the Mechanical Engineering Department (37 credit hours). A 3-month industrial internship in a manufacturing setting is required for the MEME and MS/Mfg degrees. Although a research thesis is an option, MEP students typically elect to do a manufacturing project with industry.
The MEME degree supports concentrations in Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM), Mechanical and Equipment Manufacturing (MEM), and Semiconductor and Electronics Manufacturing (SEM). The MEP core curriculum utilizes two MBA-level courses provided by the UNM Anderson Schools of Management (ASM) that cover manufacturing organization and management (MGMT-506) and microeconomics for managers (MGMT-504). The SEM concentration has a special core that covers semiconductor and microelectronics design and processing, and factory design and operations. The various curricula are listed under the Curricula site button.
Also, the UNM MEP and ASM offer a 60-hour dual-degree program leading to a MEME degree and an M.B.A. (MEME/MBA plan). An industrial internship and project are an integral part of the program. The curriculum for this degree is listed under the Curricula site button.
