Educational objectives – professional opportunities for graduates
The educational programme is based upon the necessary mathematical concepts and competences related to statistics, electronics and automation, and it focuses on:
- project, particularly on issues related to the design of mechanical parts of machines and equipment, the mechanical characterization of traditional and innovative materials, stress analysis and non intrusive measurements;
- production, particularly on issues related to the processing -even thermal- of metallic, plastic and composite materials, the organisation of industrial production and on quality control;
- operations, particularly on issues such as continuous and discontinuous combustion in internal combustion engines, cogeneration and energy saving plants using compressible fluid machines, operations of cooling plants and the relevant volumetric operating machines.
Graduates of this course might work in public or private research centres, carry out high level technical and scientific professional activities, as well as industrial or university research.
