Masters in Manufacturing Engineering with Data Science & AI for Competitive Manufacturing

Data Science and AI for Competitive Manufacturing is a combination of manufacturing science and Information and communication technology including the usage and adoption of advanced digital solutions and platforms. During the programme, students will gain new skills in relevant fields including modelling and simulation of production systems, manufacturing engineering, service and system engineering, machine learning and data mining.

A student who graduates from the ME Manufacturing Engineering with “Data Science and AI for Competitive Manufacturing” major shall: 

• have broad knowledge of theories and concepts in information system management, digital monitoring, digital security.
• be able to implement the gained expertise in data science and AI to create new or improved digital manufacturing systems and services;
• be able to critically, independently and creatively participate in strategic work to meet manufacturing-related problems and to be able to relate these measures to sustainable social development,
• be able to think beyond traditional disciplinary boundaries to find innovative solutions to real-world problems and to come up with new ideas applicable to Data science, AI and manufacturing; 
• be able to draw up plans and to make decisions foreseeing future consequences from a scientific, ethical, and societal perspective; 
• be able to turn innovations in the area into feasible and successful business solutions; 
• be able to profitably work in small size teams and contexts by taking into account all relevant elements and showing effective decision-making and leadership abilities.

There is strong demand throughout Europe for graduates of manufacturing degree programmes to be better equipped for the marketplace than their predecessors have been. There is a strong need for graduates to have direct experience in industry, to have a practical awareness of important developments within the sectors of Europe’s manufacturing industry (e.g., increased digitalisation, demands of Industry 4.0, growth of additive manufacturing and manufacturing data analytics, etc.), to have a greater awareness of innovation & entrepreneurship, combined with an international perspective that is the direct result of personal experiences. The ME Manufacturing Engineering will prepare you for high-level technical positions, Innovation roles and business profiles, including the capability to create your own start-up. It will also allow you to create a professional network at the national and international level through several initiatives and the EIT alumni communities.
