Master of Science with a major in Production systems, specialisation in Production Engineering and Management

This master’s programme provides you with skills to carry out engineering work and manage improvements in a production system. It prepares you with knowledge regarding flexible and adaptive production systems that can proactively respond to industrial changes. The programme builds knowledge in manufacturing strategies including reconfigurable production systems, production engineering and automation.

The program has a holistic view of production including development of the production system and its interaction with the entire product realization process. The programme focuses on design and development of production systems including an outlook into manufacturing reconfigurability strategies, automation and production engineering. Thereafter, management of production systems is in focus where simulation tools will be introduced for analysis of a production system. Furthermore, taking a holistic view of the product realization process allows the students to understand the importance of integration of organizational functions, persons’ knowledge and competences in order to secure industrialization and production ramp-up to the required volumes, quality and cost of a products.
