Career prospects

The career opportunities available on completion of this course are initially technical in nature, as designer and developer in specific environments (machine industry) or in related industries (electronics, computer science, manufacturing) and generally in production systems requiring mechanical systems.
Once experience has been acquired (perhaps also by means of a Master's degree in a technical or managerial discipline, from SUPSI or from another university), it will be possible to pursue a career in development team and project management, or to specialise in specific application fields.
