The MSc (Laurea Magistrale) in Industrial Engineering for Sustainable Manufacturing combines a sustainability-driven approach with a life-cycle perspective on products, services, and supply chains. Students gain hands-on knowledge of advanced technologies for sustainable production and learn to design environmentally responsible, safe and innovative products and processes. The program covers key areas of digital manufacturing, including additive manufacturing, robotics, and simulation, and develops the ability to use analytical and computational tools to assess the environmental impact of industrial and logistics processes and manufactured goods.

Two curricular options are available:

Track M – Metals, production and materials provides a solid foundation in materials science, with a practical focus on metals, their properties, and related production processes. Students pursuing the Mechanical Engineering track (LM33) may be selected for a Double Degree program with the Kyoto Institute of Technology.

Track E – Processing, Energy & Environment equips students with the skills to reengineer and decarbonize industrial processes, through courses in renewable energy conversion, hydrogen technologies, carbon capture and utilization, waste and water treatment, and air pollution control.

Active learning, including lab- and project-based activities, is a key feature of the program, with a strong focus on real-world engineering case studies. The program’s strengths lie in its international character and its strong collaboration with energy-intensive, digital, and circular manufacturing companies, sustainability-focused consultancy firms, public institutions, and research centers. These connections place students in direct contact with organizations committed to improving the sustainability of their processes, which offer main career pathways for graduates in Industrial Engineering for Sustainable Manufacturing.
