Preface

The departmental handbook provides information to

registered students on programme of studies offered by the
Department of Industrial and Production Engineering, The
Federal University of Technology, Akure. It is hoped that
the information would assist students to derive maximum
advantages from the opportunities and facilities available
in the Department and the University in planning their
academic programmes.

The currently available five-year engineering degree

programme is built on a common foundation of basic
studies comprising Mathematics, Basic Sciences,
Engineering Sciences and General Studies. The
programme is designed to facilitate specialization while
allowing opportunities for taking approved courses from
other areas. The programme is also fashioned to allow the
prospective engineer to have appropriate technical
expertise and human perspective.
The Department of Industrial and Production Engineering
issues this handbook as a general guide to its courses and
facilities. It forms no part of a contract. The Department
reserves the right to modify or alter without prior notice
any of the contents herein.

 PHILOSOPHY OF THE UNIVERSITY
The philosophy of the University is premised on the
strong desire to:
a) solve real problems which require more than one
subject area;
b) undertake a thorough modification and
identification of indigenous technology;
c) identify those that can be upgraded and modernized;
and
d) harness technological resources (equipment and
technological know-how) in servicing as well as
providing leadership to industrial and technological
development in the country.

THE VISION, MISSION AND CORE VALUES

The Federal University of Technology, Akure has, since
its establishment focus on its core mandates of promoting
the nation's technological development for individual,
corporate and national self-reliance. Thus, the University
concentrates on creating and maintaining conducive
academic and social environment for acquisition and
impartation of relevant and productive knowledge that
would add values to the lives of the stakeholders in the
system, society and the global community. In the light of
societal, national and global dynamism, the Vision,
Mission, Core Values and principles of the University
have been a reliable compass which guide leaders and
stake holders in the system to continue to constantly

6
position the institution positively for local, national and
international acceptance and approval

a) The Vision
To be a world-class University of Technology and a
Centre of Excellence in training, research and service
delivery.

b) The Mission
To promote technological advancement by providing
conducive environment for research, teaching and learning
which engenders development of products that are
technologically oriented, self-reliant and relevant to the
society.

c) The Core Values

In order for the University to remain focused and maintain
its integrity in the pursuance of the vision and mission, we
are guided by the following six (6) core values for staff
and students, and to encourage other stake-holders to buy
into them in the delivery of our services and interaction
with our immediate and external environment.
- Striving to take the lead in advancing the cause of
technology, in Africa and compete favourably with
the rest of the world.
- To stand out in truthfulness, fairness and
accountability in our dealings within the University
and the outside world.

7
- Hard-work, integrity, loyalty and total commitment
to goal accomplishment within the stipulated time.
- Consultation, representation, recognition
harmonization of diverse views of rational decision
making.

- Recognizing and respecting human dignity and

rights of staff and students to create a psycho-social
environment, conducive for teaching, learning and
discharge of other services.

HISTORY OF INDUSTRIAL AND PRODUCTION
ENGINEERING PROGRAMME

Having received approval from the National Universities

Commission (NUC) for the B.Eng. programmes in the
School of Engineering and Engineering Technology, The
Federal University of Technology, Akure, the Department
of Industrial and Production Engineering commenced the
B.Eng. programme in Industrial and Production
Engineering during the 2016/2017academic session.

The primary aim of starting the programme was to develop

manpower for the teaching of Industrial and Production
Engineering as well as to provide competent basic
engineering skills for Universities, research institutes and
relevant industries.

The course was designed to provide an in-depth

knowledge in all areas of Industrial and Production
Engineering. At the end of the programme, the students
would have covered all (general and specialized) aspects
of Industrial and Production Engineering. In addition, the
students are expected to carry out research projects to
make them engage the knowledge acquired from all the
courses taught during the programme. Apart from
preparing the students for an academic career, there is also
the opportunity to join the industries, research institutes
and other agencies.

11
 PROGRAMME PHILOSOPHY
The nature and scope of the manufacturing sector of any
country is one of the indicators of its Gross Domestic
Product (GDP). Production Engineering is a branch of
Engineering involved in the design, control and
continuous improvement of integrated systems in order to
provide customers with high quality goods and services in
a timely, cost effective manner; while industrial
engineering is a branch of engineering involved with the
determination of the most effective way to use the basic
factors of production, namely people, machines, materials,
information and energy, to make a product or to provide
services.

The philosophy of the Department of Industrial and

Production Engineering is to produce engineers who will
be competent by education, training and experience in the
relevant areas of Engineering and Management Sciences
to carry out integrated design and efficient planning of
manufacturing processes and provision of services.
Prospect areas of employment include:

i. design, construction and maintenance activities;

ii. production/manufacturing organization;
iii. simulations of production activities;
iv. ergonomics and industrial health and safety;
v. operational research; and
vi. process design
12
 PROGRAMME OBJECTIVES
The main objectives of the Department are to produce
engineering graduates that are:
i. competent by reasons of education, training and
experience to carry out the integrated design and
efficient planning of manufacturing processes and
provision of services with due consideration to
quality, quantity and cost;
ii. having specialised education and training in
manufacturing and management suitable for men
and women who aspire responsible technological/
management positions in manufacturing and
business;
iii. self-employable with relevant pre-requisite
entrepreneurial skills;
iv. competent at designing and developing new
products and production techniques for industries;
v. Professionally versatile in areas of optimal
installation and maintenance of complex
engineering systems; and
vi. flexibly innovative to exogenous technology to
solve local engineering problems.
