Video presentation Yacht Design Programme overview Summary The Yacht Design degree program, offered in English, aims to prepare students to become professionals in the field capable of confronting industrial problems at a high degree of complexity and innovation. Graduates need to be able to understand, analyze and verify pleasure crafts, design large yachts based on innovative technologies, and oversee and direct construction, testing, maintenance and repair of yachts and mega yachts. Learning by doing Learning by doing The classroom lectures in which the theoretical foundation of each course is presented to students are supported by: -didactic laboratories on design and nautical experimentation; -internships at shipyards, professional consultancy studios, and maritime classification registers and surveying boards; -conferences and workshops in the nautical field; -university regattas; -research theses on fundamental topics or on themes proposed by companies in the nautical field. Career perspectives Career perspectives Employment at construction shipyards, repair and refitting yards for yachts and pleasure craft, classification registers and surveying boards, design and professional consultancy studios and research institutes which operate in the yachting and mega yacht sectors. What you will learn Yacht stability Standards concerning the stability and buoyancy, the leak problem, the rolling movement and stabilisation means, speed effects on the stability. Yacht dynamics The course deals with the motion law definition as well as the hydrodynamics characteristics regulating ship and yacht behaviour from the manoeuvrability, seakeeping and dynamic stability sides. Ship structures The course regards the Finite Element Method for solving linear static mechanical problems Numerical Marine Hydrodynamics The course is intended to provide students with the basis of the most advanced numerical techniques adopted for the solution of the hydrodynamic problems related to naval architecture. The theoretical background of each proposed methodology, with its field of application and its limits, is presented together with hands-on examples. Motor Yacht Design This units aims to complete the student skills in the naval architecture field through the study of advanced topics specifically concerning the preliminary phase of the design. Yacht Rigging The course will provide basic knowledge about scantling criteria of sailing systems. Typical configurations are analyzed using applicable rules and by means of some advanced numerical methods. Some concepts of sail design, from a structural perspective, are presented along with a few hints about fluid structure interaction problems. Yacht Design Studio Workshop Focused on concepts concerning the onboard space and arrangement, with particular concern to the organisation on several bridges. Sailing Yacht Aero Hydro Dynamics This unit supplies students with the basic fundamentals of the sail aerodynamics and interaction with the hull, as well as technological and application concepts concerning the design methods and materials Did you know that... Yacht Design is a unique degree program in Italy and, as it is configured, it is also unique in Europe! More than 90% of our graduates find employment at major shipyards and professional consultancy studios in the field. At Polo ?G. Marconi' students, teachers and staff are united by their passion for yachting. During the academic year it is possible to participate in workshops, conferences, and the construction and refitting of boats designed by our students. In the past, our students have formed a crew and participated in the ?Mille e una Vela' university regatta, winning in 2012! Contents Contents Design of pleasure craft (without limits) both from a scientific and technological point of view and from an aesthetic point of view. The nautical designer must possess the professional competence and skills in the disciplinary fields typical of naval engineering as well as an equally solid preparation in the field of architectural composition and design applied to the nautical field. What does it mean to be a Yacht Designer? It means being able to deal in an effective manner with technical problems at a high level of complexity and innovation, and work in an optimal manner using the most modern design and production techniques. In short, the principal characteristics of a professional of the Master’s program in Yacht Design will be a student who has the ability to understand, analyze and verify pleasure craft, even at a large dimension and complexity, design yachts of large dimension using innovative technologies, and oversee and direct the construction, testing, maintenance, operation and repair of leisure craft.
