Master engineering management essentials—from system failures to data-driven maintenance—100% online.
Overview:
Engineering doesn’t stop at design—it demands ongoing management. This diploma gives you a solid foundation in engineering management, covering everything from the core responsibilities of an engineering manager to how engineered systems behave over time. You'll explore how systems fail, how to plan for maintenance, and how to extend the life of engineering assets with structured strategies.
With focused modules on maintainability, availability, and technological tools for maintenance, the course takes a systematic look at asset performance. You'll also learn to gather and analyse maintenance data to support decisions that keep operations efficient. Whether you're looking to understand system degradation or explore lifecycle planning, this online course keeps things sharp and relevant to modern engineering settings.
