Modalità di verifica apprendimento
Final project work in teams, consisting in the design of a project proposal in the realm of MES, and final presentation of the activity.
To pass the exam, the student has to demonstrate: the ability to identify industrial engineering problems and to be able to identify ways to address and overcome such problems (ca1, ag3), by appropriately combining theory and practice (ca5); the ability to retrieve and correctly exploit previous knowledge from the scientific literature (ap1); the knowledge of the tools of teamwork (cc13) and the ability to effectively present their work (ac1, ac2).

Programma del corso
Elements of project management: PMI methodology; project definition; identification of tasks, subtasks, and milestones; key performance indicators; methods for estimating the duration of each task; project reporting.
The role of the scientific literature: available resources; how to search in the literature; systematic literature review.
Technical writing skills: scientific papers; description of typical paper structures for fast scanning and effective access to the contents; how to write technical documents: papers, reports and project proposals.
Teamwork skills: how to identify roles within the group; how to make the most of the group's potential; how to make a comparison between the characteristics of a project to be carried out and the characteristics of the team, with special attention to recognising whether skills are lacking and, if so, how to acquire them.
Module public speaking: PowerPoint preparation, speech preparation, and presentation sessions (including audience involvement, body language, eye contact, etc.). Different types of presentations will be addressed, from the pitch to the classic 10-15 minute presentation, up to longer presentations such as seminars.
Multidisciplinary project work: working in groups, students will identify one topic of interest, with a connection to MES topics. After performing a literature review, they will define a possible project and write a proposal for such activity, assuming that they need to apply for funding. Finally, the group presents the project proposal to the panel of teachers. The final presentation, in the form of a pitch, will be a competition between groups: the objective is to convince an expert panel (consisting of the lecturers) of the quality and soundness of their proposals.
