Engineering and Management Politecnico di Torino

Overview

Consistently with this objective, the course offers students the opportunity to alternatively specialize their training within two teaching areas that match two typical professional profiles that the job market requires from Industrial Engineering and Management (IEM) graduates. 

Key facts

•  The first of these profiles relates to a role that is mainly specialized in the management of company resources (e.g., plant, machinery and labour employment planning), materials flow (e.g., coordination of purchasing, production activities, shipments and sales), relationships with suppliers and customers, and quality assurance systems. In this role, this type of engineer acts as a mediator between technical "experts" in the sector (e.g., mechanical engineers, electronic engineers) and those involved in the business management of the company (e.g., graduates in Business Economics).
• Career opportunities 
• The employment and career opportunities for graduates of the Engineering and Management programme at Politecnico di Torino are in the areas of process engineering, management of internal and external logistic flows (distribution and supply), analysis and management of information systems in an organization, in a private company or public institution.
• Given the innovative characteristics of some of the professionals that this degree program aims to train, not all activities that derive from their typical employment opportunities can be exactly and fittingly classified in the existing professional listings (NUP) of the Italian Institute of Statistics (ISTAT). 
• To overcome this limitation, the Degree Program Council also refers to the EUCIP classification (European Certification of Information Professionals) for those graduate professionals dealing in design and management of ICTs and company information systems.
