Industrial and Information Engineering PhD Programme
The IIE-PhD programme aims at providing highly specialised multidisciplinary training and research in the fields of electrical engineering, electronic engineering, information technology engineering, mechanical engineering and industrial management and production.
Training Activities
During the three-year programme, PhD students must obtain 20 ECTS credits through a set of training activities planned in consultation with the supervisor. These activities may be selected from the comprehensive training programme offered by the IIE Doctoral Programme Board, as well as from relevant external opportunities.
For each cycle, a specific training programme is developed:
Each year, the IIE PhD programme delivers four core teaching modules that are deliberately non-specialist and multidisciplinary in scope. These modules are designed to provide all PhD students with a common foundational background, taught by lecturers from diverse disciplines, and to encourage “lateral thinking” — that is, a creative and interdisciplinary approach to problem-solving
