Production Engineering and Automation
Modern industry is undergoing rapid transformation, driven by automation, digitalisation, and the growing demand for sustainable value creation. Companies worldwide need engineers who can integrate advanced production technologies with data-driven methods to build resilient, efficient, and flexible systems. This programme equips you with exactly those skills.
You will gain a holistic view of production, integrating the development of production systems with their interaction across the entire product realisation process - from design and industrialisation to ramp-up, quality, and cost efficiency. You will study advanced courses in production engineering, manufacturing processes, automation, robotics, AI/ML and industrial digitalisation, combined with systems thinking and sustainability. A strong emphasis is placed on problem-solving, data analysis, and interdisciplinary collaboration, preparing you to lead development projects in international and high-tech environments.
Year one - Advanced foundations in production and automation
In the first year, you will build solid knowledge in advanced production systems, automation, and digital technologies. Courses cover areas such as:
- Manufacturing processes and production development
- Automation and production technology
- Industrial cybersecurity
- Applied industrial automation
- Sustainable production and circular economy
Through lab work, simulations, and project assignments, you will gain a deep understanding of how production systems are designed, developed, and integrated into the wider product realisation process
Year two - Automation integration, AI application, and thesis
In the second year, you will continue to combine theory and practice through advanced projects, often carried out in collaboration with industrial partners. There is also a strong emphasis on machine learning and AI, focusing on how data-driven methods can optimise production, improve predictive maintenance, and enable intelligent decision-making in production systems. You also have opportunities to customise your degree with elective courses, an internship, or a semester abroad at one of JTH's international partner universities.
The final semester is dedicated to a 30-credit master’s thesis, typically conducted together with industrial partners or research projects. This allows you to apply your skills to complex, real-world challenges while developing advanced research and analytical abilities.
Į magistro studijų programas gali stoti visi, baigę universitetą arba besimokantys paskutiniame kurse. Studijos kurias baigei ar tebesimokai turi būti panašios krypties kaip ir tos, į kurias nori stoti, kadangi priėmimas yra paremtas ECTS kreditų suderinamumu.
ECTS kreditų išrašas - jei dar nesi baigęs aukštosios mokyklos, būtina prisegti ECTS kreditų išrašą, kuriame būtų matyti, kokius dalykus Tu mokeisi bei kokius pažymius ir kiek kreditų už juos gavai. Kai siunti anketą paskutiniame kurse, diplomą reikia prisegti vėliau, kai tik jį gausi. ĮSIDĖMĖK, Prie anketos būtinai turi prisegti dokumentą (anglų kalba), patvirtinantį, kad studijuoji ir šiais metais baigsi savo studijas. Dokumentas turi būti patvirtinas universiteto administracijos.
Bakalauro diplomas – jei jau esi baigęs aukštąją mokyklą, išrašo nereikia, užtenka prie anketos prisegti savo Bakalauro diplomą.
Motyvacinis laiškas - privalomas dokumentas stojant į šio universiteto programas. Universitetas reikalauja, kad laiške būtų max. 1000 žodžių.
Interviu - yra tikimybė būti pakviestam į interviu.
Svarbu, jog anglų kalbos testo sertifikatą ir visus kitus reikalingus dokumentus atsiųstum iki balandžio 10d. Anglų kalbos žinias gali patvirtinti vienu iš šių būdų:
IELTS – 6.5 (ne mažiau nei 5.5 iš kiekvienos dalies).
TOEFL - 90 (ne mažiau 20 turi būti surinkta writing dalyje. TOEFL testo rezultatai privalo būti nusiųsti tiesiogiai iš centro, kuriame laikei testą, Jonkoping universiteto kodas, kurį reikia nurodyti yra 8487).
Duolingo - 125.
Išimtis! Asmenims, turintiems brandos atestatą, kuriame nurodytas anglų kalbos B2 lygis anglų kalbos testo laikyti nereikia.
The applicant must hold the minimum of a bachelor’s degree (i.e. the equivalent of 180 ECTS credits at an accredited university) with at least 90 credits in Mechanical Engineering, Product Development, Materials Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Production Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Civil or Construction Engineering, Industrial Organization and Economics or equivalent. The bachelor’s degree should comprise a minimum of 15 credits in Mathematics.
Graduates of this programme are well prepared for advanced roles in industry and research. You might work as a production engineer, automation engineer, industrial development specialist, manufacturing consultant, or project manager in global companies. With your expertise, you will be equipped to drive innovation in areas such as smart factories, Industry 4.0, robotics, and sustainable production.
The programme also provides an excellent foundation for those who wish to continue with doctoral studies in production systems, automation, or related fields.
