Program-specific learning objectives
The Functional and Sustainable Materials Master's Program prepares highly qualified professionals to work in laboratories, companies, and public or private institutions, including managerial and entrepreneurial roles.
Graduates are skilled in:
- Materials Discovery and Design for Sustainability: Emphasis on sustainable preparation, production and recycling methods in accordance with European regulations.
- Advanced Materials Characterization: Leveraging modern characterization techniques, design of experiments and AI/ML methods to study mechanical, optical, electrical, magnetic, and thermal properties.
- Computational Materials Science Techniques: In silico prediction of material properties to guide synthesis and design.
- Advanced Statistical Methods: Big Data processing for analysis, hypothesis testing, screening of materials.
Furthermore, the Faculty is committed to encouraging significant contacts between the students and the reality of the job market and career opportunities, especially in the broader Emilia-Romagna region
