Admission
The Laurea (equivalent to Bachelor of Science, hereinafter “L”) in Mechanical Engineering trains engineers to deal with both the design and the production and management of products, technological processes and industrial plants; therefore it trains professionals able to operate in all areas of Industrial Engineering. Particularly in the early years, the programme provides a solid technical and scientific background, which the economic and applied skills can be built upon.
At the Piacenza Campus, the first and second years of the L programme are taught in the same way as the first and second years at the Milan Bovisa campus, as well as the third year of the "LM Preliminary track". The third year with a professional focus on "Machinery and Production Plants" is only available at the Piacenza Campus and offers a wide-ranging and at the same time in-depth preparation for professional activities in relevant areas of local and national industry. The “LM Preparatory track” includes courses that allow direct access to the LM programme in Mechanical Engineering. The “Machinery and Production Plants” track includes courses that facilitate entry into the world of work. The courses in the third year supplement the basic training with content in the areas of mechanical and energy systems, industrial logistics and machining systems. There is also a significant amount of in-company training.
The graduate is prepared to develop the design of mechanical systems from a functional, constructional and energy point of view, and the arrangement, operation and use of machines in a plant. After passing the State professional examination, graduates in Mechanical Engineering will be able to register with the Ordine degli Ingegneri (National Association of Engineers) (Section B).
