Career in Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering in Pakistan


Industrial and manufacturing engineering Jobs Prospects
The immense growth in the industrial sector of Pakistan has opened
new doors of opportunities for industrial and manufacturing engineers. Nowadays 72 to 80 per cent students are hired by big organizations even before their final result is announced.

What is manufacturing engineering?
John Tanner in his book Manufacturing Engineering: an introduction to the Basic Functions defines industrial and manufacturing

Industrial and manufacturing engineering thus incorporate materials and machines, people to design and build, and service the products and production facilities of tomorrow. Manufacturing engineering covers a broad spectrum of engineering topics such as computer aided design (CAD), computer aided manufacturing (CAM), numerical control (NO), computer integrated manufacturing (CIM), flexible manufacturing systems (FMS), robotics automation, product design, tools and machines, manufacturing processes, quality control, production scheduling, production and inventory control and economic analysis. Or engineers are working in various sectors such as automobile companies, pharmaceutical companies and food manufacturing firms. engineering as the branch of engineering which requires knowledge to apply and control engineering procedures in manufacturing processes, and also the methods of production of industrial commodities and products. Furthermore, it requires the ability to plan the practices of manufacturing, to research and develop the tools, processes for machines and equipment, and to integrate the facilities and systems to produce quality products with optional expenditure.


Salaries and remunerations
Fresh gradates are mostly appointed as assistant mangers. Initially they are paid Rs. 8000 to 15000 depending upon their skills.
Pakistan has definitely a bright future for industrial and manufacturing engineers but there are options in other countries as well. Some of the engineers of NED University went to foreign universities for higher education and then started working there after completing their education.

Career Options for Manufacturing engineers in Pakistan
Career in industrial and manufacturing engineering offers a broad range of options. Unlink other engineering disciplines, where engineers are bound to work in their filed of spatiality like civil engineer can work only in construction firms, automotive engineer can work in automobile sector only and textile engineer is restricted to work in textile industry an industrial and manufacturing engineer has more than one choice to work as s/he is specialized in overall industrial engineering and not only in one sector of the business.

Future prospects for Industrial and Manufacturing Engineers
Therefore, industrial and manufacturing engineer have a bright scope not only in Pakistan but aboard as well. They are found working in almost every sector including textile industry, healthy industry, home appliances sector, communication technology sector and so on. Besides technical jobs, industrial and manufacturing engineers can also serve as consultant in all these firms.
So, if you want to pursue a promising career in engineering that offers excellent remuneration and variety of options, industrial and manufacturing engineering maybe your first choice.

  1. Hey! Thank you for sharing your thoughts about manufacturing engineering jobs. I'm glad to stop by your site and know more about manufacturing engineering jobs. This is a good read. Keep it up! I will be looking forward to visit your page again and for your other posts as well.
    The history of manufacturing engineering can be traced to factories in the mid 19th century USA and 18th century UK. Although large home production sites and workshops were established in ancient China, ancient Rome and the Middle East, the Venice Arsenal provides one of the first examples of a factory in the modern sense of the word. Founded in 1104 in the Republic of Venice several hundred years before the Industrial Revolution, this factory mass-produced ships on assembly lines using manufactured parts. The Venice Arsenal apparently produced nearly one ship every day and, at its height, employed 16,000 people.
    One of the required skills in manufacturing engineering jobs is experience in working with titanium, stainless steel and aluminum.
