Overview

This programme levels up your engineering education with practical management knowledge about modern industrial assets. You will learn about relevant standards, regulations, best industrial practices and systems (industrial equipment and infrastructure), digitalised and integrated operations, modern industrial maintenance, and enabling technologies of Industry 4.0.

In this study you will gain the asset management mindset where you utilise data and consider risk and consequences, to estimate cost and benefits. This mindset will help you to take optimal decisions about operations and maintenance of facilities like offshore wind farms.

You will mainly learn how to manage modern, digital, advanced, and complex industrial facilities/engineering systems in industrial and public organisations. Furthermore, you will gain skills to manage the life cycle phases of engineering assets such as design, construction, installation, operation, maintenance, and recycling in a sustainable manner.

The study programme has two specialisations:

Asset Engineering and Digitalisation Processes
Sustainable Assets and Smart Operations
