About EITM Master School - MSc Additive Manufacturing for Full Flexibility, MSc, Double Masters - at EIT Manufacturing

The Additive Manufacturing for Full Flexibility (AM) program is a Master of Science level program within the EIT Manufacturing (EITM) Master School.  The EITM Master School is a highly prestigious Manufacturing Engineering and Science education provider on an advanced level with a focus on Innovation and Entrepreneurship (I&E). The education at EITM Manufacturing Master School combines technical competence with skills in Innovation and Entrepreneurship. EIT Manufacturing Master School students will be an elite group of forthcoming engineers, operators, innovators, and other relevant professionals.

Additive Manufacturing for Full Flexibility (AM) is a combination of studying manufacturing science including the 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 program, 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 will learn the latest theoretical knowledge and know how to apply their skills to practical real-life problems. Typical application areas of AM include rapid prototyping, flexible pattern and mold manufacturing, lightweight systems, and flexible manufacturing systems.

Program structure:

The first year is spent at one university (entry) and the second year at another (exit) university in two different European countries. The combination of entry and exit university is called a student study path.

The following universities provide an entry year (first year):

  • Aalto University (Aalto), Finland
  • University of Applied Sciences and Arts of Southern Switzerland (SUPSI), Switzerland
  • Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI), Italy
  • University College Dublin (UCD), Ireland

The following parties provide an exit year (second year):

  • Aalto University (Aalto), Finland
  • Technische Universität Wien (TU Wien), Austria
  • University of Applied Sciences and Arts of Southern Switzerland (SUPSI), Switzerland

NB: EIT Manufacturing reserves the right to change the exit universities of this program

ECTS:

The two years program (120 ECTS) includes an Innovation and Entrepreneurship (I&E) Module (30 ECTS) and a Technical Major Module (90 ECTS) structured as follows:

  • 45 ECTS for Host Programme technical courses
  • 15 ECTS for Host Programme AM specialization courses
  • 30 ECTS for the I&E Module courses
  • 30 ECTS for the Master thesis

Pedro Pinho Senna - EIT Manufacturing Doctoral School PhD Student (2020)

I recommend the EIT Manufacturing Doctoral School as it helped me gain state-of-the-art knowledge. We had 3 modules that were more prone towards Business, Economics, and getting the Ph.D. ideas that would later turn out to be innovative startup ideas. I thoroughly enjoyed the program and recommend as it is totally worth it.

I am also glad to be part of the EIT Manufacturing alumni, a diverse community of 20000 students as it provides a vast network and knowledge sharing with other communities.

Diago Rocha - EIT Manufacturing Doctoral School Student

If you are a Ph.D. student, I encourage you to enroll with EIT Manufacturing Doctoral School. We need new researchers to develop new startups in the future and to bring manufacturing back to Europe.

During the program, we had a compilation of Scientists who were from Business, Marketing, Robotics, and Mechanical Engineering backgrounds. We all come from different backgrounds and every individual will have a different point of view and we work together to put these different pieces together to obtain a good product in the end.

Maja Trstenjak - EIT Manufacturing Doctoral School Student

I recommend the EIT Manufacturing Winter School as it helped me gain
state of art knowledge. I am also super happy to have won in one of the
case studies conducted on 'How to adapt products & business for the new age' where we collectively worked as a team and our efforts were recognized.
