About Mltio University
US university with honest campus and online pathways from Minneapolis.
Overview
This MSc is for supervisors and planners who already live inside takt, scrap, and truck appointments in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and the Dakotas. Mltio University will not prepare you to stamp drawings as a professional engineer. You will design a shift-handoff that survives absenteeism, cost a changeover, and treat winter freight as a constraint, not a footnote. Tuition-free online and Minneapolis campus use the same rubrics and identity-checked exams. Capstones need a real plant, warehouse, or contract-manufacturer dataset (anonymised)—not a toy factory in a textbook with the city renamed Minneapolis.
Delivered on campus in Minneapolis with in-person seminars, library access, and student services.
**Award:** Mltio University **Credits:** 36 | **Typical duration:** 2 years (18 months)
