Product development is an exciting, fast-paced field that's becoming increasingly multidisciplinary. There is a great need for master-level engineers with a comprehensive understanding of product development, manufacturing processes, and their integration.
The programme will give you the knowledge and skills to design and evaluate products with the perfect functions, appearance and manufacturability!
You will learn to design products built to last and have minimal environmental impact throughout their entire lifecycle. By choosing the right materials and production processes and cleverly designing products in line with circular strategies, you can help minimise the negative environmental impact while maintaining product appeal and functionality.
The programme gives you hands-on knowledge and skills in using high-end engineering software while taking a broad perspective on product and production development. You will learn how to systematise and maintain knowledge in product and production platforms, an invaluable skill that will serve you well in your future career!
Furthermore, you will gain knowledge, skills, and insights into computer programming for the automation of engineering work and the setup of digital models of product- and production systems.
The programme includes data and information management and analysis, using both traditional software and AI (artificial intelligence) methods. The use of cutting-edge software and programming for automation, virtual modelling, and encoding and maintaining knowledge in digital formats has given rise to the programme's name - Digital Product Development.
Upon graduating, you will have the skills to predict product and production system behaviours and optimise them towards the circular economy using modelling and mathematical methods.
You will be prepared to take on complex and multidisciplinary tasks in product development. You will be able to prescribe and develop working procedures and IT support for product development in industrial companies so that it will include all information and result in products with predicted sustainability ready for the circular economy based on life cycle data.
The programme also prepares you for a role as PhD student in Universities and institutes.
