Doctoral Program in Design and Manufacturing Engineering 2019–2020




Introduction

Interest of the Program:

In the Department of Design and Manufacturing Engineering of the UZ, both teaching and research activities have been promoted from its origins, fundamentally applied and related in many cases with the development and innovation of complex production technologies. In this line, the present Doctoral Program integrates the non-oriented research activity with the development, technology transfer and innovation drive.

These activities are developed through the implementation of technological development projects through which close contact is maintained with the productive sector and the necessary financing is available for the acquisition and maintenance of equipment and infrastructures.

All this research activity applied and committed to the productive sector is what confirms the importance of this Doctoral Program in which researchers can continue to be trained in this field to develop their professional activity in research organizations or companies in sectors such as metal-mechanical, machine-tool, consumer goods, automotive, aeronautics, rail, naval, energy ...

Main lines of research of the Program:

1. Design, development and management of products, services and projects, including the following sublines: 

  • Industrial ergonomics and safety: tasks analysis, production tools and methods related with the work environment to avoid accidents and occupational diseases.
  • Design and development of new products and services: optimization of the whole process of creation and launching of a new product or service on the market. Product engineering. Product Lifecycle Management.
  • Project Management: Project planning and control. Risk management. Supplier management. Project management office. Project based learning.
  • Industry 4.0 supply chain management.

2. Manufacturing, quality and precision metrology, including the following sublines:

  • Manufacturing: CAD/CAM/CAQ/CIM systems; rapid prototyping, reverse engineering; optimization and automatization of manufacturing processes.
  • Manufacturing Metrology: development of measuring and calibration methods for quality control, and production systems verification. Traceability analysis, calibration, and measurement optimization for coordinate measuring systems. Portable metrology, without contact and of large range.
  • Precision mechanics: design, manufacturing and calibration of systems and prototypes for manufacturing or high precision measurement with or without contact. Mechatronics and microtechnologies. Industrial visión.


Background:

The background of the doctoral program in Design and Manufacturing Engineering is found in the previous doctoral programs in this field of research: the doctoral program, with the same name, in Design and Manufacturing Engineering and the interuniversity doctorate program in Management of Projects that from now on is integrated with the previous one given the strong synergy existing between the works of the researchers of the two previous doctorates.

In this way all the professors of the Department of Design and Manufacturing Engineering collaborate in a single Doctoral Program that aims to integrate the capacities of the professors and research groups of the three areas of knowledge existing in this department at the UZ:

  • Engineering of Manufacturing Processes
  • Graphic Expression in Engineering
  • Engineering projects

After some time it can be concluded that the integrating task of research activities carried out in this program provides positive results, since during more than twenty years of work several research groups recognized by the Government of Aragón and by the UZ have been formed. a state-of-the-art equipment for the realization of multiple public and private research projects, both national and European, has been achieved and, finally, it has also allowed to publish in specialty magazines of the current listings collected in the JCR.

A good part of this work has been integrated in recent years in the strategic lines of the Aragón Institute of Engineering Research I3A in which multidisciplinary and synergistic projects are strengthened with other research groups.


Program Objectives

The main goal of this Doctoral Program is the training of PhD graduates who lead the transfer of knowledge in innovation and research to society, in the filed of the two lines of research previously described, by developing "original research" during the beginning of their research career with high levels of quality, internationalization, innovation, recognition and mobility.


Outgoing Student Profile

The outgoing student profile has been adapted based on the verification of the following needs of PhD graduates in companies and research centers related to the lines of research, development, innovation and technology transfer of this Doctoral Program, which can be classified into three areas :

· Important productive sectors: automotive, aeronautics, railways, machine tools, metal-mechanical sector, mold makers and toolmakers, etc. Related to the optimization of their production processes and systems towards flexible manufacturing, total quality and productivity improvement.

· Companies in the instrumentation sector, precision mechanics, mechatronics, laboratories, metrological services companies, etc. Related to the development of procedures and equipment in manufacturing metrology accepted by certification and accreditation bodies.

· Emerging product companies or sectors. It is about supporting the generation of new companies and products or transferring the results of research to manufacturers of new machines or instruments for series production. This will also allow the generation of new companies and laboratories with high R&D capacity in the aforementioned sectors.

The Academic Committee will take into consideration the line of research in which the student will be integrated when choosing these courses.

The criteria and procedures of the Academic Committee for access and admission in those cases other than the previous ones (profile C) will consist of evaluating the candidate's CV to determine their training level in the fields of the doctorate program already mentioned (industrial engineering , mechanical or design), and will be assigned between 12 and 24 ECTS credits, preferably from among those described in the previous case (profile B), belonging to the master's degrees included in the preferred profile. The Academic Committee will take into consideration the line of research in which the student will be integrated when choosing these courses.

Should complementary courses be necessary, they must be studied and passed during the first year (full-time students) or the first two years (part-time students). The students will enroll for academic tutelage for the doctorate at the same time.



Enrolment Dates, Deadlines and Procedure

Doctoral students, as researchers in training and students of the University of Zaragoza, have to formalize every year the enrollment with the corresponding rights to the academic tutorship while continuing their doctoral training. The enrollment period will be set  in the academiccalendar approved each year by the Doctoral School. 

As a general rule, enrollment will be done online through the Secretaría Virtual ofthe University of Zaragoza. Previously a personal identification number (NIP) and password will have been obtained in the identity management service. Face-to-face registration will be allowed to those who cannot do it online, by going to the doctoral school during public service hours. PhD students must submit every year in which they enroll, documentation about their previous studies, depending on whether they have been taken in countries of the European Education Area or outside that space.

Full and up-to-date information on the enrollment procedure, including key points, is provided on the website of the Doctoral School, as well as prices, discounts and insurance, legalization and translation of documents and some others practical details.


Thesis Supervision

The procedures for the supervision of doctoral students are set in article 11 of Royal Decree 99/2011, which regulates doctoral studies and the rules about Thesis (Reglamento sobre Tesis Doctorales de la Universidad de Zaragoza)The doctoral student admitted to the program has to enrol each academic year in academic tutelage at the University of Zaragoza. The Academic Committee of the program will assign a Thesis Director and a tutor, who may or may not be the same. The Thesis Director will be the person in charge of the overall management of the doctoral student's research tasks, of the coherence and adequacy of the training activities, of the impact and novelty in his/her field of the subject of the doctoral thesis and of the guide in other projects and activities where the doctoral student is involved. The tutor is responsible for the adaptation of the training and the research activity to the principles of the program and the Doctoral School and will ensure the interaction of the doctoral student with the Academic Committee of the program, the body responsible for supervising the progress of the research and training and the authorization of the thesis presentation of each doctoral student of the program.

The supervisory functions of the doctoral students will be documented in the Doctorate Letter which, once the registration is made, will be signed by the doctoral student, its tutor and its director, the program coordinator and the director of the Doctoral School. Those interested can expand the information on the thesis supervision in the administrative headquarters of the program (see contact information in the general information of the program) or by consulting the program coordinator.


Student's Follow-up and Evaluation

The follow-up of the training process leading to the presentation of the doctoral thesis is carried out through the research plan and the doctoral student's document of activities. The research plan is presented before the end of the first year of enrolment and includes, at least, the methodology to be used and the objectives to be achieved, as well as the means and the temporal planning to achieve it. The plan may be improved and detailed later and must be endorsed by the Director and the tutor. The document of activities is the register of all the activities -research stays, courses, attendance to congresses, or others- that the doctorate carries out from his enrolment until the presentation of the doctoral thesis. Annually, the Academic Committee of the program will evaluate the follow-up of the research plan together with the document of activities. The positive evaluation will be an essential requirement to continue in the program. In the case of a negative evaluation, the doctoral student must be evaluated again within a maximum period of six months. Those interested can expand this information in the administrative headquarters of the program (see contact information in the general information of the program) or by consulting the program coordinator.

Once the thesis is concluded, the doctoral student must proceed to deposit and defend it according to the dispositions included in the thesis regulation of the University of Zaragoza and its procedure (info).


Other Specific Program Procedures

In addition to the previous point,  in order to guarantee the quality of the doctoral theses of the program, the Academic Committee will check at the time of admission for processing whether the doctoral student has managed to publish at least one article in a relelevant journal in his field of research (and indexed in the JCR). That article must be accepted although it may be pending publication: in that case, a copy of the article will be presented together with the digital identifier of the article (doi), or if it does not yet exist, a certificate or email sent by the journal editor, in which the article acceptance for publication is indicated. 


Transversal Training Activities

The Doctoral School offers an annual series of voluntary activities for all doctoral students. This formation has a transversal and interdisciplinary nature. The offer is dynamic and covers the following formative aspects: communication (oral and written), access and information management, and skills for a future social and professional performance.  Information about the activities, admission and enrolment can be found in the website of the Doctoral School  (info).

Additionally, other formative activities of interest for a wide range of our doctoral students are disseminated through our web (info).


Specific Training Activities

It will be necessary to carry out activities with a duration of at least 6 hours a year among the activities: Courses, Seminars for the presentation of equipment and advanced techniques, Introductory seminars to the available software resources, and Internal follow-up seminars.

In the case of part-time students, 3 hours per year will be required. 


1. Courses, Seminars to present equipment and advanced techniques, introductory seminars to available software resources and internal follow-up seminars.
These activities will be planned according to the availability of the students enrolled, so that, as far as possible, they will be developed at times compatible with the activity of part-time students.
The internal follow-up seminars will be periodic and all doctoral students in the doctoral thesis and professors can be voluntarily assisted by research lines. In them, the sharing of the work in progress and the research plans of the doctoral students must be carried out in order to receive feedback and brainstorming by the group of professors of the research lines.
Duration: Students are expected to participate in at least 6 hours/year (3 hours/year in the case of part-time students).
Control procedures: Registration in the DAD (through the SIGMA application) of the activities carried out and monitoring by the Academic Committee.

2. Presentation of the results of the research in congresses and workshops.
Duration:
Participation and presentation of papers is recommended at least two times before the defense of the doctoral thesis.
Control procedures: Registration in the DAD (through the SIGMA application) of the activities carried out and monitoring by the Academic Committee.

3. Publishing of research articles.

A significant part in the development of any research today is the dissemination of the results achieved. Therefore, students must learn to recognize when their research results are relevant enough for their publication and dissemination. Likewise, students must be able to properly select a journal that suits their research, prepare the text of the article according to the journal's standards and with the appropriate structure. And finally, they know how to correctly manage the criticisms of the reviewers until the article acceptance is achieved. Therefore, all students must publish at least one article in an international journal of reference in their field (included in the Journal Citation Reports).

Duration: To report on its duration, up to 180 hours will be counted depending on the quality of the publication.
Control procedures: Registration in the DAD (through the SIGMA application) of the activities carried out and monitoring by the Academic Committee.

4. Mobility.

It is recommended to carry out a research stay in a foreign center or in other national public research organizations, with a duration of at least 3 months. For part-time students, several shorter stays may be made, adapting the periods to the student's availability so that the corresponding competencies are achieved.
Duration: To report on its duration in hours, it will be counted at 40 h / week. .
Control procedures: Registration in the DAD (through the SIGMA application) of the activities carried out and monitoring by the Academic Committee.


Mobility

Doctoral students enrolled in doctoral programs benefit from mobility aids established in various national and international calls. The calls for the Erasmus + program stand out.

In the Erasmus + Studies mode, doctoral students can choose a wide range of destinations, since most of the agreements signed by the University of Zaragoza with other universities include places for PhD students of all branches.

In the Erasmus + Stays / Practices in companies modality, PhD students access two calls: the one from the University of Zaragoza and the one carried out by the Iberus International Campus of Excellence for the universities that comprise it, the one from Zaragoza among them.

Other mobility calls are specifically designed for Latin American students and for international stays of students with predoctoral contracts. The mobility of doctoral students of the University of Zaragoza is also encouraged with cotutela agreements signed with foreign universities.
