Mechanical Engineering - Mastertrack Advanced Manufacturing across the Scales

The Mechanical Engineering - Mastertrack Advanced Manufacturing across the Scales offered byEindhoven University of Technology (TU/e)is about grasping a fundamental understanding of materials and how to shape them into tangible devices, while mastering the experimental and digital tools required in the manufacturing of products.

Key Features

How do you build a high-tech device? How do you develop new materials? How do you perform efficient engineering? How do you make cradle-to-cradle production a reality? How does advanced manufacturing enable the energy transition and sustainable practices?If these questions spark your curiosity, then the Mechanical Engineering - Mastertrack Advanced Manufacturing across the Scales offered by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) is right up your alley.

Manufacturing is the key to enhancing societal well-being. Performance of machines, devices and systems that help us explore the world rely on fundamental science disciplines – physics, chemistry, and biology – and on engineering design and sustainability principles. New manufacturing technologies are also revolutionizing how we make things.

Consider for example additive manufacturing, nanoscale machining and assembly, material breakthroughs and AI. Studying AMS encompasses these aspects and materializes great ideas to tackle the challenges our world faces. AMS engineers understand how materials behave and the governing principles behind each manufacturing technology. They develop new devices, master computational tools for digital twins, and enable the sustainable use of resources – for breakthroughs in the mobility, communications, health, and energy sectors.

If you are interested in developing meaningful products, new materials and cradle-to-cradle manufacturing strategies, the AMS Master’s track is the perfect fit for you. The track requires a bachelor's degree in a field related to mechanical engineering, applied physics, material sciences, nanotechnology, or chemical engineering. You should have prior knowledge of differential equations, numerical and statistical methods, chemistry, continuum and quantum mechanics principles, thermo-dynamics, and transport phenomena.
