The 2nd cycle in Technology Management and Innovation aims to provide, through a scientific approach, an advanced, consistent and up to date training to create highly qualified professionals able to both solve problems related to practical applications in industrial environment and eventually follow a research career in this scientific field.

Students should gain skills that will enable them to further use the knowledge learned autonomously, thus becoming valuable assets in the corporate and industrial organizations in their field.

The MSc program also seeks to attract students from different academic backgrounds from other universities, Management and Engineering and working professionals in the aeronautics, automotive and construction fields, between others, who look forward to specializing in this field and further advance their careers....

The master’s of manufacturing engineering program at Bradley University provides students with professional robust design and continuous improvement principles. The program gives students the ability to improve integrated systems, optimize manufacturing processes, adopt state-of-the-art materials, and produce superior quality products at minimal cost. By working closely with both constituencies and students, the department combines theoretical learning with hands-on application to keep students – and the organizations they benefit – globally competitive in today’s economy.

Role of Manufacturing Engineers Manufacturing engineers (MfE) are the intermediaries between consumers and the production floor. As the key personnel who understand the relationship between the Voices of the Customer (VOC) and the Voices of the Products (VOP), their leadership and management skills are critical in determining optimal processes, minimal production costs, superior products and customer satisfaction. Further, MfEs enhance production by eliminating waste; establishing standardized operations; creating safe, green working environments; and providing training and development to the workforce.... [-]
