French term or phrase: Diplome D'Ingénieur de Travaux (Option: Production)
This is the title of a Diploma from Cameroon from: Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Industries Agro-Alimentaires du Cameroun. I cannot find the proper translation in English for this diploma. Any suggestions, will greatly be appreciated. Thanks!

Explanation:
If you try Googling this you will find numerous jobs and courses on offer for project engineers, e.g. Sheffield University ... . Without knowing how specialised in **Option : Production** the course was, I'd play safe by simply putting "production" in brackets, which is how it would most likely appear in the English equivalent. However, **option** could be translated as "specialism" or "specialising in".

Eurodicautom also translates "project engineer" as "ingenieur de travaux", citing the European Federation of Chemical Engineering as its source.

disagree  B D Finch: Given that this Diploma is from the ENS des industries agro-alimentaires, it is extremely unlikely to be civil engineering.
