Master of Science in Computer Aided Conception and Production in Mechanical Engineering

  Germany

• Other Cities in Germany: 
Aachen

Description: This program is designed to broaden and to increase the knowledge and practical use of computer-aided simulation techniques in mechanical engineering. Its particular focus is on the development and application of computer-aided methods and systems in all stages of the product development from the initial conception to the manufacturing process.

The program focuses on the important principles needed to understand and to apply simulation techniques in mechanical engineering, with special emphasis on topics, such as design of machines and structures, or production and manufacturing.

In learning about computational engineering and simulation techniques, the students will be trained to develop and to use computer-aided engineering methods in either the area of emphasis Conception of Machines or Production. The knowledge gained from ongoing research at RWTH flows directly into lectures, seminars, and workshops, thus ensuring an up-to-date and innovative curriculum.

Highlights: This program provides in-depth knowledge and understanding of the fundamentals of advanced mathematics and numerical methods, solid and fluid mechanics, software engineering, and simulation techniques. On this basis the specialized development and application of computer-aided simulation techniques is taught in two areas of emphasis:

The option Conception of Machines prepares the student to develop and to apply modern computer-aided methods focused on the construction and dimensioning of structural members and mechanical engineering systems according to the functional requirements. The core compulsory courses for this area of specialization include the fundamentals of structural mechanics, computational analysis, finite element methods and computer-aided design.

The option Production prepares students to develop and to use computer-aided systems in modern industrial production, which includes manufacturing, production systems, planning, and management. Compulsory courses cover modeling, simulation and control of manufacturing processes and production systems, automatic control, quality management and production management.
