Location of Politecnico Di Torino
The specializing Master in Automatica and Control Technologies (MACT) is a high-level educational opportunity for both newly graduated students and experienced employees that wish to acquire state-of-the art knowledge in the fields of systems engineering and automatic control.
This Master course provides both methodological insight on modeling, optimization and control of complex dynamical systems, as well as technological competencies on industrial apparatus for control implementation.
The MACT further offers courses with focus on advanced applications such as smart sensors, energy management, control of financial risk, automotive control systems, aero-space control systems, precision machining, mobile robotics, industrial networks, etc.
The MACT opens many employment opportunities, both in the local Piemonte area and at international level. Piemonte hosts several world-leading industries that heavily rely on automatica and control technologies, such as FIAT, COMAU, Prima Industrie, DEA, Alenia Aeronautica, Thales Alenia, etc, where the MACT laureate may find interesting opportunities as a Systems Engineer or responsible of automation and production lines. In a global context, the high level, systemic view gained by the MACT laureate on complex processes make him/her a precious resource for any kind of innovative enterprise founding its business on technology and innovation.
