Master in Production engineering

Applications for the Mar 2027 intake are due by Dec 12, 2026. Tuition fees are 10,500 PLN.

Poznan University of Technology, in Poznań, offers a master's program in Production engineering taught in English, running over 3 semesters, or 1,5 year. Known as Product Lifecycle Engineering, the course gives graduates the knowledge and skills to coordinate activities across every phase of a product's lifecycle. Coverage spans design, prototyping and testing, preparation and testing of the production process, production of a pilot series, and full product launch, with attention to technical, environmental and economic aspects throughout. The knowledge students acquire is broad enough to let graduates confidently coordinate and supervise the preparation and implementation of production processes across industries that produce cars, household appliances, furniture, interior furnishings, personalized medical products, toys, packaging, stationery and more. Graduates are prepared to independently manage the comprehensive implementation of a product within small and medium-sized enterprises, and to work in research and development, production, marketing or sales departments, or in a production manager role. Admission is open to students holding a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, production engineering, production management or a related field, and applicants need a foundation in mathematics, product design, materials and production engineering, along with the ability to use basic CAD and CAE tools. The curriculum also touches on Industry 4.0 technologies. Production engineering as a discipline sits at the intersection of manufacturing, systems design and business management. Graduates typically find roles overseeing manufacturing operations, coordinating supply chains, or leading product development teams in sectors ranging from automotive to consumer electronics, where technical depth and lifecycle thinking are both valued.
