Master Engineering Systems: Lean Engineering

In this master track, you will focus on becoming an authority on Lean Engineering. You will learn to model and validate systems with multiple inputs and outputs using both white box modeling and system identification. You focus on control applications used in industry. You will deepen the knowledge from your technical bachelor. The course provides you with tools to improve manufacturing design and product development. By doing so, you will be able to link technological developments with the needs of business processes.

The course consists of:
 

• lectures
• individual and group assignments
• experimental research and laboratory exercises
• model development and simulation exercises
• group cases and management games
• minor projects
• a major project including a management game

Master Engineering Systems: Lean Engineering: Content

Module 1: Systems Modelling
Applied Physics
Introduction modelling
Practice modelling and simulation
Energy Based Modelling
System Identification
Minor project modelling systems including Research skills
 

Module 2: Lean Process Development
In this module students will learn and apply lean principles and methods for the design, operational control and improvement of manufacturing processes. They will apply this knowledge in an improvement project in the industry where they use the (PDCA) A3 methodology and reporting method. There is a special focus in this module on the application of technology in process (re-)design.
 

Module 3: Applied Control
The module covers the following tasks: analysing an uncontrolled system, creating a feedback controller, applying an advanced control strategy and applying a controlled system.
 

Module 4: Lean Product development
This module covers lean principles and methods in the design and improvement of products.  Students will gain a broad and deep knowledge in several product design and development topics, such as opportunity identification, product planning, concept generation and selection, product architecture, DfX methods and important tools like Quality Function Deployment and Value Engineering. FFD and MFD strategy, operations design, planning and control, opportunity identification and the role of technology in the improvement of products.

Graduation project

All master graduation projects are motivated by real-life problems, supplied by companies related to the area of your Master Track. A master thesis is written, and the project is presented in an oral examination for a major project committee. In most cases, the thesis-related work is carried out at the company. This means that a representative of the company is involved, to verify (1) whether the thesis results match the expectations of the company, and (2) whether the rated aspects of the master thesis are relevant for the company. In this way, feedback is obtained on the professional requirements regarding the intended learning outcomes.
