Technical Training

Securing a sustainable and independent energy supply and new ways of energy production are more important than ever. Prices for all fossil energy sources have risen enormously and trends do not point to any significant easing. The introduction of CO2-pricing is imminent. In addition to legal requirements, such as the Energy Efficiency Act, growing customer demands for sustainable production methods require determined implementation. The efficient use of energy is one of the most important cost and competitive factors for production and service companies.

In this context offers MCI | The Entrepreneurial School®, together with the Renewable Energy Cluster of the Standortagentur Tirol a certificate course on  energy management.

Please note that the course is held in German. Find the detailed description here.

Process engineering is an important, interdisciplinary field of expertise within the engineering sciences. It deals with the industrial transformation of raw materials into salable, intermediate or final products and the physical, chemical, or biological processes involved. As a transformative discipline, process technology has recently experienced very strong growth in the areas of environmental technology, energy technology, food and raw materials technology, as well as biotechnology.

A large part of global industrial production is related to process engineering processes. Therefore, fundamental knowledge of process engineering is also of great benefit to natural scientists and engineers working in other disciplines that are faced with process and process engineering issues.

Content & benefits

The intensive seminar conveys up-to-date knowledge and modern methods that can be applied and implemented directly in professional life. The main topics covered are:

• Basic operations of mechanical process engineering

• Thermal process engineering processes

• Chemical process engineering methods

• Biological process engineering fundamentals

• Integral overview of plant and process technology

Target group

This program is primarily directed at participants with a natural sciences or engineering background. In their professional capacity, participants should be exposed to process engineering issues and want to build or deepen fundamental knowledge in the field of process engineering in the shortest possible time.

Participation fee

The participation fee is EUR 910,- excl. VAT / EUR 1,092,- incl. VAT and must be paid in advance. This fee includes tuition, extensive course materials and transcripts, beverages during breaks, and a free membership to the MCI Alumni & Friends association.

Provisions for the cancellation of registrations are specified in our General Terms and Conditions. For more information please refer to the current version.

Automation and control engineering offers companies a wide variety of opportunities to significantly improve the provision of services across various sectors. As a sub-area spanning the fields of mechanical and electrical engineering, automation and control engineering can substantially increase process reliability and speed in positioning, temperature control, or speed control.

Automation and control engineering assists in improving existing products and services. Moreover, the discipline achieves increases in production efficiency, along with enabling the development of completely new solutions and products.

Content & benefits

The intensive seminar efficiently conveys relevant knowledge and methods that correspond to the current state of the art and are directly applicable in professional life. It consists of the following modules:

• Mathematics (2 days of attendance)
• Simulation (1 day of attendance)
• Modeling (2.5 days of attendance)
• Analog control technology (4.5 days of attendance)
• Project work (2 days of attendance)

Target group

This technical training program is designed for professionals with relevant secondary education (e.g. higher technical education in the fields of electrical, communications, or mechanical engineering) or university training in a related discipline (e.g. industrial engineering, physics, mathematics, etc.). Ideally, participants are exposed to application-oriented questions of automation and control technology in their professional capacity, or have the opportunity to generate and realize significant improvement potential in their respective organization by means of the relevant expertise.

Participation fee

The participation fee is EUR 2,980,- excl. VAT / EUR 3,576,- incl. VAT and must be paid in advance. This fee includes tuition, extensive course materials and transcripts, beverages during breaks, and a free membership to the MCI Alumni & Friends association.

A 10% discount on the program fee is available to groups of three or more participants from the same company or institution.

Provisions for the cancellation of registrations are specified in our General Terms and Conditions. For more information please refer to the current version.

In the age of established technologies, the optimization of existing processes is increasingly crucial, becoming even more important than fundamental new developments. However, optimization requires a profound understanding of the underlying basic processes. Such an understanding has already been largely achieved for mechanical and electrotechnical problems — not least due to the use of simulation technologies.

In the context of fluid-mechanical processes, however, the corresponding findings are still lacking. The rapid development of high-performance computing systems as well as advances in the solution methods of the corresponding partial differential equations now promise to remedy this situation. With the parallelization of algorithms, we are approaching the solution of many industrially relevant problems, which will enable us to accelerate product development cycles and increase the competitiveness of companies in this domain.

Target group

The four-day workshop is designed to provide an introduction to the world of numerical flow simulation. Participants do not need an in-depth training in flow mechanics or numerical methods to be able to implement the course content.
