The doctoral course is structured into different curricula:

The Computer Engineering program aims to provide advanced skills in the modeling and design of: embedded, distributed, and cloud systems; software engineering models and methodologies; security and performance assessment of computing systems; Artificial Intelligence models and techniques; and advanced modeling and control of mechatronic and robotic systems, including automated and connected vehicles, and process control and automation systems.

The Energy Conversion program aims to train professionals with expertise in the energy sector, focusing on methodologies and technologies for the use of renewable sources, energy saving, and energy system optimization. The new challenges to be addressed are associated with the conversion and widespread distribution/generation of electrical and thermal energy.

The Aerospace Engineering curriculum aims to develop professionals with expertise in flight mechanics, aeronautical structures and constructions, aerospace systems, aerodynamics and thermo-fluid dynamics, and aerospace propulsion.

Finally, the Mechanical Engineering curriculum aims to provide students with the knowledge and skills necessary for the modeling and design of mechanical structures, machines, and systems, focusing on more specific topics such as advanced numerical simulation and optimization of mechanical and thermo-fluid dynamic systems, consolidating theoretical analysis and experimental verification.
