Educational objectives

GENERAL OBJECTIVES
The course aims to teach 1. theoretical aspects, consisting of models and database languages, 2. project methodologies, which will allow the student, once they are acquired, to tackle concrete cases, 3. technologies, consistent in various software tools used in a combined way for the implementation of databases, by means of tools that are widespread in business practices.
At the end of the course the student will be able to interact with the recipient of a database application in order to correctly summarize the requirements and to develop the project first, then the application itself, choosing the most suitable tools.

SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES
KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING.
The course aims to provide the student with the knowledge and understanding of the theoretical, methodological, technological tools that cover the various aspects useful for interacting with the environment of databases, with professional or scientific objectives.

CAPABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING.
Thanks to the course the student will be able to proceed with the definition, project and implementation of a data base that can be integrated with application components, using formalisms (during the project) and languages (in development) that constitute consolidated industrial standards.

MAKING AUTONOMOUS JUDGEMENTS.
Both the written test and the project work put the student in front of unforeseen situations that encourage the development of the ability to make decisions autonomously, both in the contents (the design object) and in the tools.

COMMUNICATION SKILLS.
The use of wide-spread representation standards determines the acquisition of a "language" to interact in any professional context. The project work requires on the one hand to interact and to take into account the needs of "clients" (true or presumed) of the database application, and on the other to defend the choices made during the discussion of the project work.

LEARNING SKILLS.
On one hand the course provides theoretical knowledge of a very general nature, on the other (in the context of project work) it requires developing practical experiences with multiple tools integrated with each other, in many cases having to look for the accompanying documentation on its own. This kind of experience, together with a solid basic culture in the sector, creates the best conditions for the independent development of further knowledge.

Premise
Industrial plants are production systems characterized by a degree of complexity, tailored to the needs of a user (industrial company) in order to pursue economic goals.
Within an industrial plant, several technical components can be identified, essentially related to the production of industrial activities (production plants) and to the realization of all the services necessary for the operation of the plant (service facilities) .
Today's productive economic environment, in which industrial plants find use, requires some reflection in order to fully appreciate the needs of industrial companies and hence the role of the plant engineer.
In recent years, there have been significant economic and social changes, largely linked to the extraordinary technological progress that has characterized in particular the past of the last century and which have led to phenomena that have profoundly changed the markets. Among others, the following are particularly important and characterized by a sufficient degree of generality:
- the increase in the quantity and quality of information available to both suppliers and consumers;
- the expansion of markets, namely the so-called globalization;
- the increase in consumption;
- the enhancement of the quality of life.
These circumstances, in turn, have determined, from the point of view of the design and management of industrial plants:
- rationalization requirements;
- ability to satisfy ever more particular and changing needs;
- increase of competitiveness and competition;
- Increasing management needs compared with operating and executive requirements.
All this in a context that, due to the need to meet the new market perspectives and to renewed social and environmental sensitivity, is gradually becoming more interested in issues such as:
(A) Sustainable development (which in general terms translates into issues of rational use of energy, conservation / maintenance and security),
(B) the economic efficiency of production activities and
C) satisfaction of stakeholders (which translates into quality issues).

From a socio-economic point of view, the formation of new Political Entities (European Union) and of the new World Trade Organization (OCT) are also being formed. These include, inter alia, the definition of new rules aimed at homogenization Of technical and commercial behaviors:
- international voluntary standards on the management of productive activities;
- harmonized standards;
- directives of the "new approach".
Ultimately, processes such as European integration and, at a wider scale, globalization of markets, as well as creating new competitive conditions (all stakeholders), bring companies to more and more aggressive competitors, Coming from different economic realities. The tightening of business competition thus greatly enhances the importance of effectively combining customer satisfaction and cost containment, which can now be considered as the two core principles to be followed for the development of Any productive system economically and financially sound.

Educational goals
In view of the premise, the course of Industrial Plants aims to:
(A) provide basic knowledge of Industrial Facilities (identification, classification, description of the main elements);
B) provide elements related to the design and management of industrial plants

Educational objectives

General objectives:
The objective of the internship is the application of the knowledge acquired during the course of studies, through the in-depth study of an advanced topic or the development of a project. It represents an opportunity to engage with a new application or study context where the notions and results learned are not preliminarily presented and prepared for use but must be selected and applied independently, relying on all the skills acquired during the course of studies. It is also an important opportunity to refine communication skills, as it includes a significant component of interaction with other technical figures.

Specific objectives:
Knowledge and understanding: to successfully complete the internship activity, it is necessary to learn new and advanced notions, specific to the application or study area within which the activity is carried out.

Applying knowledge and understanding: the development of a project or the in-depth study of an advanced topic requires the application of the basic knowledge acquired during the course of studies, as well as the ability to adapt such knowledge to the specific case. The internship represents the first opportunity to deal with the application of one's knowledge in a context where active engagement is required.

Making judgements: the internship activity places the student in front of numerous problems and, consequently, various alternatives for their solution, thus stimulating analysis and comparison skills necessary to identify the most appropriate alternative for solving a problem.

Communication skills: the need to interact continuously and effectively with technical figures of equal or greater experience requires the refinement of one's communication skills, both in understanding and in production. At the end of the internship, students are able to engage effectively with specialists in the field where the work was carried out.

Learning skills: learning abilities are tested during the internship, as to complete the work it is necessary to build a new technical background, both by accessing the literature and by interacting directly with specialists.
