Methodology, software & labs

How you'll learn

100% online training on the SEIUM campus, with downloadable material, recorded classes and an assigned technical tutor. There are no fixed timetables: you progress at your own pace within the intake, so you can combine it with your job.

Each module combines theory, guided reading of the original standard and applied exercises. The working software is MoTeC i2 Pro, 2D Data Recording, Python with pandas, Apache Kafka and Grafana, in free, academic or evaluation versions. Tests are studied through real procedures: building a data platform for racing motorcycle telemetry, automated lap analysis with maths channels, and sensor anomaly detection with machine learning. Assessment is continuous by module, plus the final Master's Thesis.

Standards covered: ASAM MDF 4.x, ASAM XCP, ISO 11898-1, IEEE 802.11, ISO 8000-8, ISO/IEC 27001, FIM Grand Prix Regulations, Regulation (EU) 2016/679.

Assigned technical tutor:every module ends with a deliverable that your tutor marks individually.
Standards-based learning:guided reading of ASAM MDF 4.x, ASAM XCP and ISO 11898-1 applied to real cases, not as a theoretical annex.
Industry software:MoTeC i2 Pro, 2D Data Recording, Python with pandas, Apache Kafka and Grafana, in free, academic or evaluation versions.
Master's Thesis with defence:A data engineering platform for a motorcycle racing team, from acquisition architecture and data pipeline to analysis, machine learning and visualisation, defended before a panel.
Flexible format:100% online, no fixed timetables, compatible with full-time work.
