Product Lifecycle Management

Programme highlights

• Designed with international academic partners
• Tailored to current industry needs
• Hands-on practical experience in your company

The content of the programme is state-of-the art based on the latest developments in the sector and has been designed jointly with international university partners of our Eropean University Alliance EU4Dual and together with our partner companies. What makes our Co-op Microcredential offer unique is the tailor-made use-case application directly in the company and its international focus.

Requirements:

You can apply if you meet the following requirements:

• A bachelor’s degree in a technical degree programme
• English B2

This microcredential is aimed in particular at specialists and managers in the fields of production, product development, process and project management, and supply chain management who wish to specifically expand their skills in product lifecycle management.

As part of the Co-op microcredential programme, participants will work on an industry use case. Current employment with an industrial company is therefore an advantage, but is not a prerequisite for taking part in the microcredential programme.

Required documents for application:

• Curriculum vitae
• Information about your current employment
• Self-assessment of previous experience (basic prior knowledge, advanced prior knowledge, expert)

Integration/combination options:

The microcredential is carried out jointly with students on the European Joint Master’s programme in Digital and Sustainable Manufacturing Engineering and can be credited towards this programme. The industry use case will be managed and assessed separately.

Study organisation:

The microcredential is offered in a co-op format, meaning that part of the learning experience takes place within a company. The programme combines online learning (approximately 60% of the total duration, including the kick-off session and self-study), face-to-face teaching at FH JOANNEUM Graz (approximately 20% of the total duration, including guided in-depth learning and practical exercises), and business practice obtained directly in cooperation with an industrial company – ideally in your own company (approximately 20% of the total duration through an industry use case).
