Advanced Manufacturing across the Scales (AMS) is a Master’s track in the Mechanical Engineering Master’s Program. This means that you apply for the Master’s Program in Mechanical Engineering (CROHO: 60439) and specialize in AMS. This master’s track offers a two-year program (120 ECTS), with the first year revolving around courses. The second year is dedicated to the internship and graduation project. After completing the program, you receive a Master’s diploma in Mechanical Engineering stating your specialization in Advanced Manufacturing across the Scales.


Year 1	Core program	20 ECTS
	Specialization courses	20 ECTS
	Free electives	15 ECTS
	Professional skills	5 ECTS
Year 2	Internship	15 ECTS
	Graduation project	45 ECTS

Year 1

In your first year, you’ll build a strong academic foundation across core mechanical engineering disciplines while beginning to specialize in advanced manufacturing.

Year 2

The second year is all about learning how to apply the disciplinary knowledge and skills acquired throughout your course program. In your internship (15 ECTS) you apply your know-how in an industry project or at a research institute. Being an ambassador of the AMS Master’s track, you gain an impression of your professional future. After your internship, you work on your graduation project (45 ECTS). This AMS graduation project revolves around academic research, allowing you to specialize in the AMS aspects that interest you the most.

The Mechanical Engineering Pre-Master's Program

The Mechanical Engineering (ME) pre-Master’s program is intended for students who have not been granted direct admission to the AMS Master’s track.
