2. General presentation of the study programme
The Master's Degree in Mechanical Engineering aims to train engineers that are able to carry out many different tasks in the job market, through an educational offer designed to guarantee a solid scientific, economic and technical background as well as an in-depth knowledge that may be required to carry out professional activities.
A mechanical engineer, being involved in the design, the production process and products and their use – both individually and as part of a plant – must have an advanced technical preparation in: machine design, regarding its functioning and resistance of its components, the transformation of energy in the machinery itself, the materials used in construction, fluid mechanics, the required manufacturing, the design - as an essential part of the design phase, services and elements relating to functioning, size and performance control and the basics of industrial automation .
3. Learning objectives
The considerable variety of skills expected of a mechanical engineer calls for, as the main academic objective of the programme, a solid background with well-founded scientific knowledge with a significant technical and application content, favouring immediate entrance to job market. In particular, the capacity to design, build, install and optimise machinery and plant use, the means used to activate it and related services is developed. In this way, a great deal of attention is dedicated to the technical preparation in all aspects of mechanics allowing rapid adaptation to the most varied of professional needs.
Out of the training course in Mechanical Engineering, there are three fundamental roles sharing a general approach that could strengthen the method of study and encourage the capacity to reconfigure themselves adapting to the changes of professional reality in which they will operate.
The three different professional roles can be distinguished amongst themselves by their different capacities to innovate and apply complex models to describe the reality to be modified and/or designed:
- the Bachelor of Science graduate: a university-trained technician, capable of developing projects and managing processes in the industrial engineering domain, with consolidated engineering methods and technologies;
- the Master of Science graduate: a figure capable of independently developing innovation projects of products, processes and productive systems, both in the industrial and advanced tertiary fields;
- the Doctor of Research: a figure that aside from possessing the Master of Science graduate skills, is able to independently carry out applied research projects and organise their operative activities.
4. Organization of the study programme and further studies
4.1 Structure of the study programme and Qualifications
The Mechanical Engineering programme’s structure is in line with the decrees on universities’ teaching autonomy and in response to the needs on structuring and improving the academic level, with the aim of favouring the entrance of mechanical engineers on the job market. Through the structure and objectives of this programme, it introduces highly innovative characteristics and is based on a series-configured study route progressing to the qualification of:
Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) which is awarded after a three-year programme, after which the title of Mechanical Engineering Graduate is awarded. In the first year a solid preparation in the preparatory and foundation disciplines is provided, followed in the second year by a more engineering-orientated education in the main sectors of mechanics. In the third year, students choose between various professional tracks and one preparatory one. Only students with an average score, rounded up to the nearest whole number, of 24/30 or above can access the preparatory training (valued on 30 September of the second calendar year after that of enrolling) and with a credit deficit, in the transitory period for passing from the 509/99 educational system to the 270/04 educational system, particularly for the 2013-2014 academic year, lower than or equal to 25 CFU credits.
Master of Science (M.Sc.) this is awarded after two years, following awarding of the Bachelor of Science. In the first year, high level engineering education is reinforced with an increase in knowledge of advanced analysis methodologies that in the second year are applied to Master of Science modules and in the Master of Science thesis development. Admission to the Mechanical Engineering Master of Science is by a selction based on an examination of students’ previous careers and on an assessment to ascertain whether students’ preparation is sufficient.
Research Ph.D. (Ph.D), awarded after studying for a further three years after the Master of Science. The Research Ph.D. was devised and organised to prepare professionals of a high cultural profile with extensive knowledge that allows them to satisfy the demands of companies, research bodies and of universities. Admission to carry out a Research Ph.D is regulated by a test.
In support of the regulations, students are encouraged to consult the School of Industrial and Information Engineering website http://www.ingindinf.polimi.it

7.3.2 Professional profile Ambassador in Smart Infrastructures
Politecnico di Milano aims at strengthening the skills related to smart infrastructures in the Master of Science degree programmes.
The goal of this track is to create new professional profiles in Smart Infrastructures: MSc graduates with forefront systemic skills, interdisciplinary vision, digital skills, specific aptitude to innovation. The Ambassador in Smart Infrastructures corresponds to a professional figure with both advanced and specialized skills in specific applications (infrastructures) and/or enabling technologies (smart), as well as transversal skills, complementary to the above-mentioned specialized ones. These skills will allow the students to broaden their knowledge in the smart infrastructures domain and to adopt a systemic approach to the design, management, innovation, and study of the life cycle of infrastructures.
The training programme is articulated within the MSc educational path and sets at 130 credits (thus at least 10 credits in addition to the standard MSc requirements) the minimum number of credits needed to complete the selected MSc and, at the same time, to qualify for the certification in Ambassador in Smart Infrastructures.
As part of the educational path, the student will have to acquire from 8 to 14 CFU from Table A and from 18 to 24 CFU from Table B. Overall, for the completion of the path at least 30 CFU must be selected from the two Tables, in compliance with the ranges defined above.
The Ambassador in Smart Infrastructures certification will be reported in the Student’s Diploma Supplement and will be recognized by issuing a specific digital badge.
Students who will not obtain the required extra 10 credits and the 30 credits in training activities functional to the Ambassador in Smart Infrastructures profile will not be precluded from obtaining a MSc degree.
