Description
PDEIS is linked to the scientific areas of: Industrial Management and Systems, Economic Engineering, Human Engineering, Optimization and Operational Research, and Numerical and Statistical Methods.
PDEIS should provide students with the following skills profile:
- broad culture and critical spirit in the area of ??industrial and systems engineering;
- advanced knowledge in the scientific area that fits your work topic;
- ability to respond to complex challenges in research and industry, conducting and executing the necessary activities autonomously (either individually or as a team);
- leadership ability of multidisciplinary teams;
- multidisciplinary approach to industrial and systems engineering problems, framing them in the respective technical-scientific, economic, social and environmental contexts;
- ability to communicate results and ongoing activities with scientific rigor to scientific, technical and/or general audiences.
Key learning outcomes
1. Train a new generation of specialists and researchers capable of, in a systemic way, devising innovative solutions, from / to integrated systems of products with high added value and / or that allow their positions in the major international value chains to rise .
2. Create highly qualified and specialized human resources that contribute to the competitiveness and sustainability of the products and services industry. It is intended to provide the development of advanced scientific skills associated with the design, modeling and management of complex engineering systems.
3. Promote in PhD students the ability to develop research independently or in teams that result in new knowledge with relevant original results not only in the scientific domain, with high potential for publication in specialized journals of high merit, but also for the industrial community and central decision-makers.
4. Develop the student's critical analysis skills to identify complex problems and define innovative strategies to respond in the field of industrial and systems engineering, considering the economic, environmental and social relevance of engineering problems.
5. Provide students with skills adjusted to integration into the labor market, whether academic, business or public.
Access to higher education
The conclusion of this Doctoral degree allows the realization of research activity at post-doctoral level
Careers
