Studies

The Department of engineering design and materials is responsible for the specialization Product development and materials technology (PuMa) offered through the Master of Science in Product development and manufacturing. This programme has a technological and scientific bias whilst creativity and innovation is also cultivated.

Programmes of study tied to the department:

• Product development and manufacturing (5-year Masters / MSc)
• Product development and manufacturing (2-year Masters / MSc)
• Engineering and ICT (5-year Masters / MSc)
• Engineering design and materials (3-year PhD)

Furthermore, the following specializations are offered in connection within these aforementioned masters programmes.

Specializations: 

• Product development and materials  (Product development and manufacturing.)
• Product development and materials engineering (Engineering and ICT)

The primary contact for the doctoral programme at the Department of engineering design and materials is head of the department Ole Ivar Sivertsen. Contact Professor Sivertsen for information about the academics in particular fields of interest or for general information. The topic of one's doctoral thesis will normally be confined to research and development projects that are being carried out in the departments or within the associated research groups.

Each doctoral candidate's study is typically financed by a research fellowship. The department can provide information about available positions.

For additional information concerning doctoral studies, including structure, applicable rules and forms, see the «Doctoral programme pages » for the Faculty of Engineering Science and Technology.
