Program Description

The Production Engineering Technology (PET) Bachelor of Science program is offered by the Mechanical Technology departments in the TVTC' affiliated Colleges of Technology. It is an applied engineering technology program which is positioned to meet the growing national market's need for qualified production engineering technologists. The program encompasses the junior and senior years of the four-year training period required to receive the B.S. degree in PET. It succeeds another two-year program leading to an associate degree in Production Technology.

The training curriculum for the PET program focuses on strengthening and extending the knowledge and skills acquired in the associate degree program. It is carefully designed to provide its graduates with solid knowledge and readily marketable skills which enable them to adapt to a wide variety of technical careers and to assume managerial and leadership positions. Its core coursework comprises a range of courses, including: Basics of Electricity and Electronics, Statics and Strength of Materials, Plastic Technology, Engineering Materials, Control Technology, Operations Research, Production Planning and Control, CIM, Non-conventional Machining, Industrial Maintenance, Lean Manufacturing, Facilities Planning, Industrial Robotics an Automation, Tool Design, Machine Design, and a graduation project.

These courses are complemented with general courses necessary to enhance and broaden the trainee's knowledge and proficiency in English, math, physics and management. The latter is given a considerable weight in the PET program by incorporating five management related courses, including: Introduction to Management and Leadership, Communication Skills, Engineering Project Management, Quality Tools and Applications, and Engineering Economy. In addition to the mentioned subjects. Upon completion of the PET program, trainees will have the ability to:

 Identify, analyze, formulate and solve manufacturing related problems by using current knowledge and adapting to emerging applications of mathematics, science, and engineering.

 Apply the technologies of materials, manufacturing processes, tooling, automation, production operations, maintenance, quality, industrial organization and management, and computer software to the solutions of manufacturing problems.

 Conduct, analyze and interpret experiments and apply experimental results to improve processes.

 Perform effectively on multi-disciplinary teams by exercising leadership and contributing as a member.

 Communicate effectively in written and oral formats to a variety of audiences.

 Engage in lifelong learning and professional development.

 Understand professional and ethical responsibilities.

The Theoretical and Practical Tests and Graduation Projects Determine Learning Outcomes and Trainee Levels for each program.

The training courses contain a theoretical part and a practical part. The practical part is tested as a practical test and the theoretical part is a theoretical test with different evaluation methods

The Bachelor Degree Graduate gets the seventh level in the Saudi Arabian Qualifications Framework (SAQF).

This is an introductory course on facilities planning with emphasis on the design, analysis, and selection of manufacturing facilities and material handling systems. It provides some fundamental concepts, theory and procedures for the study of facilities location, physical layouts, material flow, and material handling. Analytical procedures are developed to enhance the decision-making process in the design, rationalization and improvement of manufacturing facilities. The knowledge learned in this course is integrated with knowledge from related courses to prepare a facility plan project for a selected product.

Topics:

 Introduction to facilities planning.

 Product, Process and Schedule Design.

 Flow systems, activity relationships, and space requirements.

 Material handling.

 Layout planning models and design alternatives.

 Warehouse operations.

 Quantitative facilities planning models.
