The University of Trento (Italy) is a young, medium sized University located in the Alps of Northeast Italy, close to the border with Austria. The University of Trento aims at academic and life-style excellence in a human-scale city offering outstanding services and quality of life.
Trento international standards, increasing over the years, create a solid policy basis and links with the local administrations and the territory, resulting in enhanced services to its students and to the academic community. The result is a wide range of excellent courses, supported by a high-level scientific research profile and by international academic and industrial cooperations with relevant achievements at international level.
Being a relatively small University and thanks to the Opera Universitaria, the University of Trento offers its members a very attractive package of services. Among the University strengths is its outstanding international character and a number of cooperation bonds and projects with universities in all Continents which open up several opportunities to study and work abroad, while the community of international lecturers in Trento fosters an on going and effective dialogue with the territory.
Educating young professionals, giving them sound preparation, maturity and awareness of skills and requirements needed by the global job market, is a goal that the University of Trento pursues every single day, in the belief that its most relevant responsibility– and indeed the duty of all universities – is to contribute to development and innovation of the territory they belong in a worldwide boundless scenario.
The Department of Industrial Engineering aims at developing enhanced knowledge through research, training and teaching in the field of Industrial Engineering, focusing on Mechanics, Mechatronics, Materials Engineering, Electronic-and Micro-electronics systems, Managerial Information Systems, and Optimization Methods and Models to support decision making, as to best serve industrial developments and the uptake of new technologies.
The research spans on different fields related to materials engineering, with particular emphasis on materials structure and properties, new materials and technologies; automation systems including robotics, intelligent transportation systems, human-machine interactions, and biomedical devices; energy production and storage; the design and implementation of mechanical/ electronic integrated devices, with specific functions in innovative applications; the optimization of products and processes.
Production techniques, micro structural properties, mechanical characteristics, corrosion resistance and interaction with the environment represent the most relevant research fields. Ceramics, polymers and composites, and metallic alloys are studied. Furthermore, new materials are "designed" for special innovative applications.
The Department is active in many EU funded projects. Research activities are conducted in the annexed laboratories, in cooperation with international research groups given the strong interdisciplinary nature of the studies.
