The course will involve a well balanced series of guest lectures from researchers and engineers in academia, technological institutes, and industry (large scale industry, or innovative startup) in which different themes, developments and perspectives will be presented. Fluid Mechanics, Mechanics of Materials, Design Production and Management as well as integral safety and Maintenance developments will be reflected in the lectures. These lectures will be partly through the year, and a short concentrated set is given in the period 2B. Attendance to these lectures is mandatory. Themes and lecturers will vary from year to year. The students select one particular lecture topic for which they carry out a detailed study and write a technical paper.
