Modern industrial systems are distinguished by a significant complexity that requires a holistic approach for their appropriate management. The recent evolution and pervasiveness of modern digital technologies, which characterize the new productive and economic paradigms thanks to their cognitive and connectivity potential, is deeply modifying the operating context and the role of the engineer in the industry.
The engineer is now required to face the challenges posed by technological innovation and be able to adopt and manage them within the systemic complexity in which they are called to operate. Multi- and interdisciplinary approaches are typically required along with in-depth knowledge and technical skills, as well as extensive knowledge and skills in economics and organizational structures.
The Master's degree program in Management and Industrial Systems Engineering aims to train engineers with the necessary skills to effectively manage and govern the processes that characterize the new production paradigm and the related industrial revolution. To this end, the program aims to provide very solid, but at the same time balanced, competencies both in technical disciplines as well as in disciplines related to the management of the systemic complexity of a modern industry. It also considers economic-organizational aspects and the challenges arising from environmental sustainability and digital technologies in industrial development.
The Master's degree program in Management and Industrial Systems Engineering is especially addressed to students who have solid knowledge in the field of industrial engineering.
Program Overview
The Master’s degree program in Management and Industrial Systems Engineering aims to train engineers with the necessary skills to effectively design and manage the processes that characterize the modern production paradigms, with particular attention to the completeness of the technical background as a fundamental condition to allow these practitioners to interact with the different business units and functions.
The Master's degree program aims to train engineers with a holistic and integrated vision of industrial problems rather than an approach focused on single aspects or specific technologies. Master’s graduates in Industrial Systems and Management Engineering are distinguished by their ability to:
Apply tools and methodologies for the design and management of complex industrial systems;
Apply modern quantitative techniques to support decision-making processes;
Manage the main digital technologies at the basis of the new industrial revolution;
Apply methodologies for the promotion and management of innovation;
Evaluate the environmental sustainability of industrial products and processes.
