Master Advanced Manufacturing Processes for Aeronautical Structures (AMPAS)

After a short recession period, the Aeronautical industry market is facing a rapid and continuous increase worldwide as shown by the record-breaking contracts recently signed by both Airbus and Boeing. These two industry leaders forecast an increase of close to 5% in activity over the next years and estimations indicate that the annual increase of large commercial airplanes will induce a doubling of the number of aircraft by 2030.

Nearly sixty percent of the turnover is subcontracted all over the world and concerns mostly production and manufacturing activities. As a consequence, most aeronautical subcontracting companies will have to increase their production rates but also to keep up to date with technological changes; moving from metallic processes toward composite materials processes. Moreover, the aircraft manufacturers have changed their supply chain structure in the last years, and subcontractors are now required to manage more complex parts and to take over, on their own, the qualification processes....

The aim of this two-year program is to provide students with solid knowledge of mechanical engineering (mechanical design, production and plant maintenance, logistics and production planning, etc.) and its related fields. To this end, the course aims to form a modern mechanical engineer, able to integrate traditionally separated specialized fields, such as the mechanical design, mechatronics, automation, management and logistics ones. The degree course splits into two different branches in which students can specialize: “Mechanics and Automation” and “Logistics and Production”.

The Master has been established at the Faculty of Science and Technology of the Free University of Bolzano (Unibz). The Master is offered singularly from the Free University of Bolzano and has an international character. The path “Logistics and Production” is offered in collaboration with the Otto-von Guericke University of Magdeburg (OvGU) and allows obtaining a "double degree".... [-]

Master of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering is a post-baccalaureate internship program leading to the professional degree of master of engineering. The objective of the program is to provide the engineering BS graduate the means for earning a terminal master’s degree. The capstone experience for the master of engineering degree may be a course design project, a well-organized and carefully chosen industrial internship, or an independent study project in place of the conventional thesis requirement of an MS degree.

This master’s degree is particularly well-suited to students who wish to study part-time, those interested in updating their technical skills, and those not focused on a research-oriented master of science thesis.The program consists of core courses (12 credit hours), concentration courses (16 credit hours), and elective courses (20 credit hours)....

The Master of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering is a 30 credit hour degree program. It is intended to be a terminal degree program designed for those who wish to become a leader in the mechanical engineering field.

This degree is particularly well-suited for students who wish to study part-time, for those interested in updating their technical skills, or for those not focused on a research-oriented Master of Science thesis. A conventional thesis is not required for the program. In its place, students complete a capstone experience, which may be a design project leadership course, a well-organized and carefully chosen industrial internship, or a project with a paper option. A research methods course may also fulfill the capstone experience.... [-]

In Italy, the term "Politecnico" means a state university consisting only of study programmes in Engineering, Architecture, and Design.

With approximately 40,000 students, Politecnico di Milano is the Italian largest university for Engineering, Architecture, and Industrial Design and it is ranked as one of the most outstanding European universities in these fields.

The university has seven campuses located in Milan and in other nearby Italian cities. It is organized in 12 Departments, devoted to research and in 4 Schools, devoted to education.

Thanks to a strong internationalization policy, many programmes are entirely taught in English, thus attracting an ever-increasing number of talented international students, who form a diverse community from more than 100 countries.... [-]

The Aerospace Engineering Department offers a broad program in graduate studies leading to the degrees of Master of Science (thesis and non-thesis) and Doctor of Philosophy. Graduate students can choose from the following areas of specialization:

Within these disciplines, the student can tailor programs in areas such as computational fluid dynamics, aeroelasticity, hyper-sonics, composites, smart structures, finite elements, space propulsion, robotics, and human factors.

The Master of Engineering is a non-thesis professional degree, based primarily on coursework and/or on an engineering project designed with the guidance of a faculty advisor to address a need or problem specific to their engineering field of study (Civil, Environmental, Electrical, or Mechanical Engineering). This degree program is designed to provide a broad, practice-based education.

LO1. Demonstrate the ability to apply graduate-level critical thinking skills to formulate and solve advanced mechanical engineering problems:

Mechatronics is a synergistic and integrated process of several sciences and skills (among which control and computer sciences, electronics, mechanics) which allows to conceive and to design products and systems with augmented or improved functionality and which requires to consider the conception of the product or system in its overall lifecycle in a cooperative interdisciplinary approach.

After having completed this program, the students are being prepared for Ph.D. studies. They can also work as engineers or occupy high level technical and scientific positions in research centers, in research and development departments and in specialized consulting firms.

Advanced Master in Aerospace Project Management

Aeronautical, Space and Defense business is, by nature, complex, innovative with high added value. Placed at the heart of political, economic, environmental and technological issues, in France, in Europe and worldwide, it requires a prospective vision from decision makers.
