Introduction
Master in Welding Engineering
In the area of welded construction, both in Portugal, in Europe, in the United States of America and practically around the world, strict compliance with welding standards is required, such as, EN 1090 (product certification and factory production control), ISO 3834 (quality requirements), Eurocode, ISO 14731 (welding coordination), ISO 9606 (qualification of welders), ASME BPVC (Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code), EN 12953 (boilers), both at the personnel level (operator, supervisor, engineer, etc.), as well as welding and control equipment and processes, among others.
The fundamental objective of the course is to provide specific higher education in welding, namely in the design, supervision and control of welded constructions and their processes, as well as in research and development on welding. The aim is not only to attract young students to a culture of excellence and innovation, but also to consolidate or renew knowledge for professionals who wish to retrain in the lifelong learning process.
