Description

The Course is organized in two curricula: Management; Mechatronics and Energy.

The course aims to train qualified researchers in the areas of Industrial and Information Engineering, with cross and integrated skills, which is found to possess excellent employment prospects in the research and development area of both manufacturing and services enterprises.

In the curriculum Management, the educational objectives are the development of knowledge and learning inherent in the organization of production and logistics systems, the optimal sizing of production systems, the analysis of advanced models of optimization, the study of organizational systems for enterprise networks, the management of projects, the development and application of ICT systems.

In the curriculum in Mechatronics and Energy the training activities are oriented to the acquisition and integration of multidisciplinary knowledge and expertise on the issues of mechatronics engineering and energy. This includes in-depth knowledge of the methods for the design of mechatronic devices and systems and their control, innovative systems for the production and transmission of energy, the transformation of energy from primary sources in forms appropriate to the end use and the transmission from the places of transformation to the end users.

Both curricula are strongly related to the subjects of the Industry 4.0 initiative.

The Teaching Committee may propose to one or more students enrolled, evaluated as suitable, a program of study and research in collaboration with the Federal University of Viçosa (Brasil) that will result in the achievement also of the title of Brasilian PhD in "Doctor in Computer Science”.
