Master in Product Design Engineering

Goals

This master’s programme aims to give to its students an integrated set of skills solidly grounded on advanced knowledge in the scientific area of mechanical engineering in general, with a special focus on the domains of product design and development. This aims to confer the capacity to integrate knowledge of different disciplines, to frame and solve problems, to know how to communicate and to survey and produce relevant professional information, as well as managing lifelong learning.
It also allows the student to gain more competences in domains related to product development so that he/she can better develop quality products in a rapid and innovative way, with high levels of success and added value.

It will also allow active professionals to obtain a specialization in this domain, increasing the technical competence and dynamics of the region’s industrial and entrepreneurial communities.
