Descriptions
Studies in the Mechanical Engineering degree program aim to provide students with the skills for the machinery and metal technology-based activities associated with machine design, manufacturing and production technology or automation.
The studies emphasize the practical, user-centered approach, learning by doing, problem-solving skills, collaboration skills, professional studies in depth, as well as managing internationalization. In addition, elective study modules support multi-tasking and ensure that the graduates have solid expertise in their field of studies and are able to apply this expertise in practice.
Specialization studies are:
• Machine Automation
• Machine Design
• Manufacturing and Production
Development
Konetekniikan neuvottelukunta on tarkastanut ja hyväksynyt opetussuunnitelman.
