During your studies, you will acquire not only the skills required to optimise processes, solve problems, and professionally represent international manufacturing and engineering companies, but also the knowledge needed to develop technical solutions to the economic, social, and environmental challenges of our global society.

  • a broad theoretical and practical understanding of selected areas of technology, science, and engineering;
  • knowledge of the processes and challenges at the interface between business and engineering; and
