The MITx MicroMasters program credential in Principles of Manufacturing (PoM) is a certificate program offered by MITx and administered by the MIT Mechanical Engineering Department (MechE). It consists of eight intensive online courses that provide learners with a fundamental understanding of manufacturing principles, including rate, quality, and cost control in a manufacturing enterprise. The program also includes four comprehensive final exams, which are virtually proctored.
The MicroMasters program credential in Principles of Manufacturing is a standalone professional certificate and is offered on the MIT Learn platform. It is important to note that the MicroMasters program is not a degree-granting program, and it does not guarantee admission to MIT or the MechE graduate program.
