To keep our economy healthy, U.S. manufacturing must continue to increase its productivity, profitability, and competitiveness across all sectors. Doing so will require creative thinkers and knowledgeable manufacturing engineers, who can improve the production process in its entirety, rather than in incremental parts.

With the Certificate program in Manufacturing Excellence by Design, we show you how to develop that holistic approach.

Analyzing the product design at every stage — from identifying initial customer requirements to creating product specifications and designing for manufacturability and environment — our students learn what it takes to build and maintain high standards of excellence. By offering a full spectrum of robust design methods, we prepare you to effect real change in the manufacturing sector.

Our curriculum is best suited to the working professional, but you’ll have a head start should you also choose to continue your studies: certificate course credits can usually be applied to a related master’s degree at NYU-Poly.

Admission Requirements

You must hold a bachelor’s degree and have relevant work experience to be considered for the program.
