The RWTH Aachen University (Germany) has one of the best faculties for mechanical engineering worldwide and conducts the program’s engineering part. The first year is based on the MSc in Production Systems Engineering and provides in-depth knowledge of production technology and systems and production-related processes. It focuses in particular on industrial R&D practice in the four areas of organization: manufacturing technology, production machines, production resources, and quality management. Research directly influences the curriculum, ensuring students are guided by the most up-to-date information and practices possible.
Management at the Maastricht School of Management
On the management side, MsM’s (Netherlands) six decades of international experience will enrich students’ skills as globally-oriented managers.
