Il corso illustra strumenti e tecniche per la gestione innovativa d’impresa attraverso l'adozione di una visione sistemica e cross-disciplinare. 

Obiettivi formativi visibili

II corso di Ingegneria Economica ha l'obiettivo di illustrare ed applicare metodi, strumenti e tecniche per la gestione innovativa d’impresa, attraverso l'adozione di una visione sistemica e cross-disciplinare. Il corso ha l’obiettivo di accompagnare gli studenti in un percorso di crescita che prevedrà l’acquisizione di conoscenze e competenze in tema di: 1) Valutazione del fabbisogno di risorse di un’impresa e le modalità per la loro acquisizione; 2) Definizione delle attività fondamentali di un’impresa e applicazione dei principi di process management; 3) Identificazione delle modalità operative per la gestione delle tecnologie e delle risorse umane; 4) Definizione di modelli di prodotto-servizio e strategie di innovazione aziendale; 5) Definizione ed applicazione di metriche per la misurazione del valore creato da un’impresa; 6) Identificazione ed analisi di proposte ed idee progettuali in ambiti industriali diversificati.

In particolare, gli obiettivi formativi ed i risultati attesi del corso possono essere descritti in termini di conoscenze, capacità di applicare le stesse, autonomia di giudizio, abilità comunicative e capacità complessiva di apprendimento.

Conoscenze e comprensione: Il corso permette di acquisire conoscenze integrate relative all’impresa, quale sistema socio-tecnico complesso e di comprenderne le dinamiche organizzative e strategiche. Capacità di applicare conoscenze e comprensione: Le attività progettuali e di esercitazione previste nel corso consentono di applicare i metodi e gli strumenti di gestione dell’impresa presentati nel corso delle lezioni. Attraverso tali attività, gli studenti svilupperanno capacità di analisi e comprensione delle dinamiche strategiche ed organizzative riguardanti l’impresa nella sua caratterizzazione di sistema aperto e complesso.

Autonomia di giudizio: Il coinvolgimento degli studenti in attività di studio a livello individuale e di team ha l’obiettivo di accrescere la capacità di giudizio e valutazione dei singoli. L’analisi di contesti aziendali reali e casi studio e la loro elaborazione a livello di team rappresenta un esercizio utile alla creazione di un autonomo giudizio e di sintesi.

Abilità comunicative: Il corso promuove competenze ed abilità comunicative attraverso processi di partecipazione attiva alle lezioni frontali, con sessioni ad hoc dedicate a domande e riflessione sui temi affrontati e la presentazione da parte di tutti i componenti del team delle attività progettuali realizzate nel corso del semestre.
Capacità di apprendimento: Il corso consente di sviluppare capacità di apprendimento in ambiti disciplinari di potenziale applicazione nelle differenti specializzazioni di carattere ingegneristico e rappresentano aree di conoscenza cruciali per il percorso professionale dell'ingegnere.

Metodi Didattici

La metodologia didattica si ispira ai principi dell’action learning. Le sessioni di lezione frontale, svolte attraverso l’utilizzo di presentazioni power point, si alternano ad esercitazioni ed attività progettuali da svolgere in team e relative a casi studio e contesti reali di applicazione.

Modalità d’esame

La modalità d'esame prevede lo svolgimento di un test scritto, con quesiti a risposta multipla ed esercizi.
