Mission and goals
The Laurea Magistrale (equivalent to a Master of Science) trains professionals with solid engineering foundations, a good scientific approach and a broad range of technical and applied contents. The level of cultural education is raised during the first year by broadening the knowledge of advanced analysis methods, which in the second year are applied in specialisation subjects and a thesis. The first year is offered in the Milano Bovisa and Lecco campuses with the same study plan (the first year is not available in the Piacenza campus, which offers only the second year). Students can choose different previously approved study plans (PSPA) in the second year. Some are offered in the Milano Bovisa campus (“Impianti e Produzione” [Production Plants and Production], “Meccatronica e Robotica” [Mechatronics and Robotics], “Metodi e Tecniche di Prototipazione Virtuale” [Methods and Techniques for Virtual Prototyping], “Motori e Turbomacchine” [Engines and Turbomachinery], “Progettazione” [Design], “Materiali e Tecnologie Innovative” [Materials and Innovative Technologies] and “Veicoli Terrestri” [Ground Vehicles]). Others are offered in the Lecco campus (“Mechanical Systems Design” and “Industrial Production”) and one in the Piacenza campus (“Macchine Utensili e Sistemi di Produzione” [Machine Tools and Production Systems]).

Graduates with a Laurea Magistrale (equivalent to a Master of Science) in Mechanical Engineering are technicians who can independently develop the functional, construction and energy-related aspects of innovative products, processes and systems in industry and in the advanced tertiary sector. On passing the State Professional Examination, Mechanical Engineering Graduates with a Laurea Magistrale (equivalent to a Master of Science) can ask to be included in the Register of Engineers (section A).
Presentation
See
http://www.polinternational.polimi.it/uploads/media/Mechanical_Engineering_04.pdf The MSc Programme in Mechanical Engineering – Ingegneria Meccanica provides an academically challenging exposure to modern issues in advanced Mechanical Engineering.
The educational goal of the MSc Programme is to train highly qualified engineers, capable of playing different roles in the job market, by providing them with sound scientific, economic and technical competences, together with broad practical and professional skills needed for a successful career in a technologically advanced and rapidly evolving society.
The specialist in Mechanical Engineering, being involved in the design, production process and operation of products and systems, needs to develop a strong interdisciplinary background in machine design, with respect to functional requirements, dynamic and structural analysis, propulsion and engine systems, fluid mechanics, material properties and selection, manufacturing processes and production systems, operation and management of industrial plants, experimental techniques, mechatronics and industrial automation. The programme is taught in English.

The 1st year is organised in the following compulsory modules: Control and Actuating Devices for Mechanical Systems, Applied Metallurgy, Energy Systems, Nonconventional Machining Processes, Machine Design, Mechanical System Dynamics, Mechanical Measurements, Configuration and Management of Production Systems.
In the 2nd year students will have the possibility to specialize the training, by choosing among the following tracks:
Milano Bovisa Campus: Production Systems, Mechatronics and robotics, Virtual prototyping, Internal Combustion Engines and Turbomachinery, Advanced Mechanical Design, Advanced Materials and Technology, Ground Vehicles.
Lecco Campus: Mechanical Systems Design, Industrial Production.
Piacenza Campus: Machine Tools and Manufacturing Systems.
