QUT’s Master of Advanced Manufacturing is a 1.5 year, full-time postgraduate degree. In this course, you can choose from two majors:

  • Digital and Robotics Manufacturing
  • Bioprocess Engineering

This degree is designed for students with a background in engineering and a recognised undergraduate degree from the identified disciplines to provide a foundation for continued learning.

Net zero emissions and sustainable bioprocessing practices are core to business now. Companies are looking to hire engineers who can develop sustainable manufacturing systems using the latest technological and operational strategies.

Developments in digital and robotic manufacturing are creating new opportunities for achieving circularity in production systems, minimising waste at industrial scales, integrating net positive environmental technologies, and producing high quality, high value, highly customised manufactured products. Implementation of Industry 4.0 strategies, and evolving into Industry 5.0 concepts and beyond, sees manufacturing approaches that are human centred, resilient, and able to achieve true sustainability.

In this degree, you will learn to strategically apply new technologies and modes of manufacturing to help streamline operations and innovate. You’ll learn to address emerging trends in de-carbonisation and lead projects using sustainable materials and processes such as biofuels and animal-free food production. You'll learn how to build sustainability and resilience into a manufacturing process when supply chain impacts affect production.

This course is ideal for innovative future leaders in both established manufacturing firms and new entrepreneurial ventures.

You’ll learn in cutting edge facilities such as our QUT Pioneer BioPilot, based on the site of an operating sugar factory, which is a unique research and development facility that converts biomass into biofuels, green chemicals and other bioproducts at the pilot scale.

You’ll also have access to ArmHUB – our jointly owned innovation hub for agile robotics, AI and design for manufacture industry. The hub is at the forefront of industrial transformation, building strong local supply chains and preparing companies for success in global markets.
