  • Expertise in areas of high demand by industrial and/or service companies
Presentation

With the growing demand for professionals in the field of Industrial Engineering and Management (IEM), also considering the process of the deep restructuring of the new concept of the industry at the national and European level, designated by Industry 4.0, which aims to digitize the Industry and the business models, there is a need to train EGI professionals with strong skills for solving problems based on decision support systems, big data, and data science, supported also by the knowledge acquired by the exact sciences.

The 1st cycle of studies in EGI is intrinsically associated with the industrial, economic, and social growth presented in this 21st century, whose structural transformations on which it is based, allow for differentiated growth and employability. Also, the presented EGI degree has a predominant role in sustained organizations' growth, energy sustainability, environmental impact minimization, and the product's added value maximization. The degree in EGI is based on the recommendations expressed by EUR-ACE and can be compared with other references to European higher education institutions.

The EGI's course structure is supported by a qualified teaching staff, which fully covers the intervention areas, offering an innovative curriculum, with the transversal characteristic skills of EGI, giving priority to team working, offering the creation of national training opportunities in collaboration with companies and researchers. The course plan includes a curricular internship, benefiting from a vast network of companies and institutions that are partners of the department, and promoting the student's integration into the labor market.

Objectives

The Bachelor’s in Industrial Engineering and Management (EGI) aims to prepare engineers in Industrial Management who are concerned with the design, improvement, and installation of integrated systems of people, materials, information, and equipment, based on the techniques and specialised knowledge coming from the exact sciences (mathematics, physics) and the social sciences, together with the principles and methods of engineering analysis and design.

In this way, it is intended to provide Engineers in Industrial Management with the necessary skills to enable them to have the analytical, technological, and management capabilities, enabling the application of the knowledge acquired in industrial, transport, and energy companies, as well as in various organisations, including hospitals, town halls, consultancies, among others. In short, the IEM graduate should be able to

  • Identify, formulate, and solve problems typical of Industrial Engineering and Management, through the planning, implementation, and improvement of systems, which include people, materials, information, and equipment, using analytical, computational, and experimental tools.
  • Analyse and interpret data.
  • Use technologies and programming languages appropriate to the development of solutions.
  • Organize and use large volumes of data, structured and unstructured, in an efficient and safe way.
  • Apply knowledge in the fields of exact and social sciences, transversal to IEM.
  • Design a system or process that can respond to the needs, taking into account the economic, environmental, productivity, and quality constraints.
  • Work in multidisciplinary teams.
  • Communicate and collaborate effectively.
