About
The Master's Degree in Mechanical Engineering is structured with the educational objective of providing students with the ability to deal with a wide range of problems, mainly related to industry - but not only, by using broad fundamental knowledge, acquired through university education. The objectives listed above can be achieved by offering the possibility of choosing between two training paths with a strong specialist connotation: Mechanical Design and Energy.
The course is taught in two languages, Italian and English. Also in the Master's degree, the path provides 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 (industrial or internal). The offer of curricular internships in companies is periodically updated, through the continuous interaction of the CdS with the industrial realities of the Region (Steering Committee). The educational path is integrated by offering students the opportunity to participate in both lessons and technical visits in companies and to participate in seminars/conferences of technical study organized in synergy with the world of businesses and professions (Steering Committee)
