ACADEMIC
In order to guarantee a strong background in the area of Mechanical Engineering, mandatory teachings are offered in the fields of Mechanics of Materials, Innovative Metallic Alloys, Advanced Thermodynamics, Dynamics and Vibrations, Product and Process Engineering, Assembly Systems and Logistics, Product Development and Innovation.
The Program is completed with four different tracks, each with properly focused teachings:
- Advanced Mechanical Design: providing knowledge and skills related to the latest mechanical design and simulation methodologies (static, fatigue, dynamic), including those necessary to effectively design advanced mechanical components with innovative materials such as composites, nanocomposites and polymers, also taking advantage of numerical tools.
- Smart Digital Manufacturing: providing knowledge and skills related to the engineering design of advanced and automated manufacturing systems, including the design of automatic machines, maintenance management policies, human sustainability, ergonomics and safety, digital twins for automation and collaborative robots.
- Sustainable Materials and Design: providing knowledge and skills related to industrial and product sustainability, such as material selection for sustainable design, material technology and recycling, green design, lightweight design, energy management in industry and circular economy.
- Multiphysics Simulation: providing knowledge and skills related to the advanced numerical simulation of innovative products in several fields of mechanical engineering, such as geometrical modelling, structural analyses, dynamic behaviour, process simulation, thermofluid dynamics, aerodynamics.
The Master’s degree programme culminates with an industrial internship and a thesis demonstrating mastery of the subject matter, autonomous working capabilities, and strong communication skills.
