- Elasticity and strength of materials - Mechanics of Structures - Production and Manufacturing Systems

Knowledge and ability to apply strategies of the methods of work employed in mechanical design. Develop material selection criteria, application to failure theories, safety factor choice, in general, the factors that influence the design and dimensioning of the elements and training to decision-making. Know the concept of tribological phenomena and industrial solutions. Acquire the theoretical basis concerning the processes, systems, tools and more commonly used in the manufacture of parts. Set the machines, tools, equipment and optimal technological parameters for a given manufacturing process. Know the need for checks and to ensure the quality and safety of products.
