Master of Engineering in Industrial Production and Manufacturing

ABOUT THE PROGRAMME

About the Programme

The German University of Technology in Oman (GUtech) and the University of Brescia in Italy collaborate to deliver the Master of Engineering in Industrial Production & Manufacturing (MEng IPM) at GUtech campus in Oman.

The MEng programme focuses on two strategic sectors, namely material extraction and processing, and innovative, high automation and sustainable manufacturing.



The programme enables students to gain a solid and in-depth knowledge in the field of extraction, production, testing and control of ferrous, non-ferrous and polymeric materials, the use of new advanced materials for component production, and plant logistics with a special focus on business development and entrepreneurship.

Students will learn how to run a machine, design a production cycle, or optimise a manufacturing processes by using ad hoc simulation software in GUtech Labs. The gained knowledge in this “virtual environment” will give students the possibility to go deeply inside the problems of running a machine or optimising a manufacturing process without running expensive and time consuming experimental tests in the workshop.

About the Partner University

The University of Brescia (UniBS) was officially established in 1982. It has 4 schools (Medicine, Engineering, Economics, and Law), offering 24 Bachelor degree programmes of study and 16 Master degrees with about 15,000 students enrolled. The strong commitment to innovation in materials and processes applied to medical fields allows the University of Brescia to focus its activities mainly on the Health and Wealth of people and environment, through the integration of its own cultural and scientific areas and in cooperation with Italian and international partners working in health, economic-industrial and socio-institutional fields, in order to generate knowledge to educate new generations and take an active part in the progress of Brescia, Italy, and, in general, the world.

GUtech and the University of Brescia collaborate at different levels and in a range of areas including exchanging students and professors as well as developing new study programmes.

Graduate Attributes and Skills

Graduate Generic Attributes and Skills and Master Outcomes

The attributes and skills that your are expected to develop during their postgraduate studies are divided into attributes and skills that build on the core values of the University and outcomes that are specific to your programme of study.

The generic attributes and skills that build on the core values of the University are the same for all programmes of study. They are:

  • Ethics – The graduates have developed awareness and holistic understanding of their role as responsible citizens in an increasingly globalised context.
  • Critical thinking and problem solving – The graduates are able to engage real-world problems in a theoretically informed, rigorous, and questioning manner. They are able to devise solutions, select the most appropriate one, implement it, and reflect on its performance.
  • Creative thinking – The graduates are able to think laterally and develop creative ideas.
  • Individual and team work – The graduates have the capability to work effectively alone or in a team, to be self-directed, and to show independent judgment.
  • Communication – The graduates are effective communicators, using oral, written, and electronic communication skills. They can interact confidently in a variety of settings, with a range of people from both genders, individually and in team situations, from peers to the wider community;
  • Life-long learning – The graduates appreciate that learning is continuous and have the ability to continue learning throughout life. They have developed a variety of approaches to learning, including self-directed, collaborative and self-reflective processes.

In addition to the above, as a graduate from the Master in Industrial Production & Manufacturing you will also have developed the following generic attributes and skills:

  • Specialised knowledge – Appropriate methods, tools, awareness in innovation and problem solving techniques finalised to material science and production technologies are fundamental characteristics for the Master and furnish the students the capabilities of understanding the different topics, their interconnections and limits (these competences will be described in detail in the following).
  • Applied knowledge –Theory is important for learning but how to apply technical and professional knowledge becomes fundamental for a master engineer. The graduates are able to develop and test new solutions and control methods during practical activities and in the virtual Labs (these competences will be described in detail in the following).
  • Information and Communication Technology – ICT is a science that stresses the role of information, communications, computer hardware and software, audio-visual systems in accessing, transmitting and manipulating the information. This skill is applied to simulate actual processes and to create a virtual model of actual production systems. It provides the possibility to test different plant and process parameter configurations and to identify the optimal productive solution in a virtual and low cost environment.
  • Management skills – The Master is giving a clear methodology for managing projects by understanding the issues of risk management, on-time project delivery, cost analysis and, fundamental for a good manager, the capabilities for understanding and managing people.
  • Interdisciplinary thinking – The nature of the study programme requires the students to develop interdisciplinary skills which allow them to see issues from different perspectives and understand the influence of one discipline on another. These skills enable the students to effectively solve complex issues using creative solutions from different disciplinary approaches.
  • Theoretical knowledge – Comprehension of the theoretical concepts underpinning the study of materials, production processes, plant logistics and management, and applied economics. The programme also allows the students to relate such theories to wider national and international industrial sectors.
  • Methodological diversity – Skills for applying a diverse range of methods of analysis, evaluation and promotion, including quantitative (e.g. econometrics), qualitative (e.g. empirical social research), IT- based (e.g. GIS techniques), and communication-driven approaches (e.g. expert interview, or discussion moderation). Students are encouraged to carry out fieldwork and investigate customer requirements and needs.
  • Communication skills – Expertise in incorporating views and interests of various stakeholders from customers, business, regional and central government, and private companies.
  • Innovation skills –  Identification and application of innovative materials and technologies to production processes so to identify smart solutions characterised by higher sustainability, recyclability, safety and Eco friendliness.
  • Entrepreneurial skills –  A focus is set on developing entrepreneurial skills matching national priorities for a profitable and sustainable growth. The Master covers the fundamentals of applied economics, business management, start up and business incubators with a focus on the Oman resources and business possibilities such as the capabilities of developing a viral attitude toward entrepreneurship.
  • Analytical and reflective thinking –  Understanding the complexity of managing and promoting production business. The programme also enables the students to critically assess and carefully consider the cultural, environmental, and economic impact of global business activities such as production of materials and goods. Participants should be able to use critical and analytical thinking in selecting appropriate development models and rejecting others depending on the profile of the region and communities they are dealing with.
  • Leadership and people management skills – A good engineer involved in production and management business must develop capabilities to attract, retain, motivate and coach the members of his working team, understanding and optimising individual and team performances keeping in mind a fundamental issue: cooperation to get things done.
