The labour market has changed radically in recent years. In this new world shaped by dramatic changes in technologies, organizations and society, interdisciplinary skills are key to innovation/career. The Programme in Management Engineering provides such skills by integrating the management of product technologies and production processes with the management of business organizational processes and new business models. Accordingly, the training path of the Master's Degree in Management Engineering is articulated as follows. It integrates traditional basic skills such as quality management and energy management of production systems, production and supply chain planning methodologies, and integrated business management, along with basic interdisciplinary skills related to business analytics and data management models. It also includes specialist skills related to innovative production and innovation management technologies and new business models. The Programme is organised to offer its students the choice between two tracks: Advanced Manufacturing and Operations Management and Business Innovation and Entrepreneurship.

Admission to the Master’s Programme in Management Engineering is subject to an interview. A minimum GPA of 70% and a certified B2-level mastery of English will be considered as highly preferential by the interview committee. In addition, the consistency of the Bachelor’s degree and the courses taken relating to the key subjects characterising the Master’s Programme in Management Engineering will be checked upon and evaluated.
