About
The Master's Degree in Industrial Engineering aims to provide students with advanced training for the exercise of highly qualified activities in the disciplinary fields of industrial engineering. More specifically, the Degree Course is dedicated to the training of professional figures of engineers with high cultural and professional preparation, qualified to set up, carry out and manage even complex design activities and to promote and develop innovation. Graduates are able to independently develop advanced projects in terms of product and process from a functional, construction and energy point of view, with the choice of materials and related processes, the design of the arrangement and management of machines in a plant for optimal use. Graduates are able to obtain, analyze and use adequate models of machines, plants and industrial processes, even complex ones, for the purpose of introducing and managing technological innovation in industrial and service companies, with particular attention to the manufacturing industry.
This is the result of a solid preparation in the basic disciplines and in the more specific ones of mechanical engineering, through a training path that deepens, in addition to the methodological-operational aspects, also the theoretical-applicative ones related to:
- production with particular attention to production technologies, production systems and logistics systems.
- analysis and optimization of combustion processes through fluid dynamic analysis of finite elements.
- Reuse of polymeric, construction and steel materials.
- Industrial design aimed at reintroducing the final product into the production process.
The path includes the possibility of training activities chosen independently by the student, with CFU that can be acquired both through free choice courses consistent with the training project and with curricular internship activities (company or internal). The offer of curricular company internships is periodically updated, through the continuous interaction of the Degree Course with the industrial entities of the Region (Steering Committee). The educational path is integrated by offering students both the opportunity to participate in lessons and technical visits to companies and to participate in in-depth technical seminars/conferences organized in synergy with the world of business and professions.

Access to the Course
To be admitted to the Degree Course, it is necessary to have a three-year degree or university diploma, or another qualification obtained abroad, recognized as suitable.
c) Admission to the Master's Degree Course in Industrial Engineering requires possession of the following curricular requirements.
d) The curricular requirements for admission are met by the student who has the following curricular requirements:
- c1) at least n. 42 CFU in the S.S.D. MAT/03, MAT/05, MAT/07, ING-INF/05, FIS/01, CHIM/07
- c2) at least n. 52 CFU in the S.S.D. ING-IND/08, ING-IND/09, ING-IND/10, ING-IND/11, ING-IND/12, ING-IND/13, ING-IND/14, ING-IND/15, ING-IND/16, ING-IND/17, ING-IND/21, ING-IND/22, ING-IND/27, ING-IND/31, ING-IND/35, ICAR/08.
Only CFUs acquired with specific profit tests in university courses are counted and CFUs acquired on the basis of assessments of certified professional knowledge and skills are excluded.
