A Bachelor's degree, equivalent to a Swedish Kandidatexamen, from an internationally recognised university. Also required is: 60 credits in materials science, materials engineering, materials physics and/or materials chemistry, or 60 credits mechanical engineering in combination with 10 credits of materials science, materials engineering, materials physics and/or materials chemistry; 15 credits in mathematics including linear algebra and calculus; ; 5 credits statistics; 5 credits mechanics; practical experience of laboratory work and ability to use computer-based calculation tools, such as MATLAB, CAD (such as SolidWorks) or FEM (such as COMSOL).
Proficiency in English equivalent to the Swedish upper secondary course English 6. This requirement can be met either by achieving the required score on an internationally recognised test, or by previous upper secondary or university studies in some countries.
Build a brighter and more efficient future, layer by layer. Through the Master's Programme in Additive Manufacturing, you will learn to create complex physical objects through 3D printing and computer-assisted design processes in materials ranging from amorphous metals to biocompatible materials. Become a part of the initiative that gathers research and education in the field of additive manufacturing at the Ångström Laboratory, one of Europe's most advanced laboratories on functional materials. Additive manufacturing is a field of technology that has developed from simple 3D printing into a key technology area for the manufacturing industry of the future. Alongside the Internet of Things and Big Data, additive manufacturing is considered one of the cornerstones of the future Industry 4.0. Today, additive manufacturing is used both for prototyping and manufacturing in a broad range of segments, spanning from aviation and medical implants to fashion and the cultural heritage, to name just a few. The Master's Programme in Additive Manufacturing at Uppsala University will provide you with a robust theoretical understanding of additive manufacturing and 3D-printing processes, and the practical skills to apply such methods to solve real-life problems. These skills are highly sought-af
