Individuals with an interest in improving manufacturing or design processes may wish to pursue a program in systems engineering. Students can find instruction in the design and architecture components of improving systems, as well as studies concerning the techniques, tools and methods for successful integration of new developments.

A master program may be offered in a variety of different fields, allowing students of almost any subject to enhance their knowledge and improve their credentials. This degree generally takes one to three years to obtain, although requirements may vary.

Part-time learning allows one to obtain a degree or qualification even if one cannot attend school on a full-time basis. One can learn at one's own pace, gradually accumulating credits that count towards a final qualification.
