This masters merges manufacturing technical and technological aspects with innovation and entrepreneurship teaching, in the context of the global societal challenges, such as circular economy, industrial innovation and sustainability. It is a double degree programme, coordinated by EIT Manufacturing Master School, between UCD and other universities around Europe i.e. Aalto University, Finland, Ecole Centrale de Nantes (ECN), France, University of Applied Sciences and Arts of Italian Switzerland (SUPSI), Switzerland, Institut Polytechnique de Grenoble (Grenoble INP), France and Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien), Austria. The first year is spent at UCD (entry university) and the second year is spent at another (exit) university as listed above. 
Students choose one of four majors offered as part of the programme i.e.
  • Additive manufacturing for Full Flexibility,
  • Zero-Defect Manufacturing for a Circular Economy,
  • Digital Manufacturing for Innovative Ecosystems
  • Data Science and AI for Competitive Manufacturing.
Additive Manufacturing for Full Flexibility (AM) is a combination of studying manufacturing science including physics of additive manufacturing processes, mechanical design including exploiting the design freedoms enabled for more customized products and services, and production management including the flexibility enabled for smaller lot production. During the programme students will gain new skills in these areas.
In manufacturing science, relevant fields include molten material physics, heat transfer, and deformation. In design engineering, relevant fields are numerical and topological optimization, process physics simulation, new concept generation and design engineering. In production management, relevant fields include logistics, digitalization and quality. Students learn the latest theoretical knowledge and know how to apply their skills in practical real-life problems. Typical application areas of AM include rapid prototyping, flexible pattern and mold manufacturing, lightweight systems, and flexible manufacturing systems.
See the EIT Manufacturing Master School Website for further details.
