Majors

12 majors technology are available from the middle of the second year including 8 which are bilingual and one taught entirely in English. They are taken as options (with the possibility of choosing some modules from a different major to the principal one).

Electronic Systems of Telecommunication Engineering (ISET), Bilingual

Objective : to train radio-frequency (RF) and microwave frequency (HF) engineers in order to respond to the high demand for such positions from industry in the fields of telecommunications, aeronautics, automotive, etc.

The teaching will provide skills in the design, production and characterization of RF and HF sub-assemblies and circuits. This is achieved through lessons, practical work and case studies which are based on technology lessons created by industry and intended for applications such as GSM and its associated developments, radar, GPS, WiFi and Bluetooth.

Communications Engineering (ICOM), Bilingual

Objective : to train engineers about communication in all its forms, from the wide ranging telecoms sector through to embedded communications. The teaching begins with the essential, fundamental aspects : supports (copper, fibre optic, and wireless), coding and modulation and networks. This is followed by current technologies (WiFi-WiMax, xDSL, GSM-UMTS, RFID tags, GPS positioning) and future applications (voice and video service quality over IP, communicating vehicles, and mobility), taught through lessons and industry case studies.

Networks Architecture and Security (ASR), Bilingual

Objective : to train engineers who are capable of responding to the high demand from business for information systems security and telecommunications networks security. Skills that the major aims to provide include the design and implementation of telecommunication and remote data processing networks, networks management and administration, the deployment of new architectures, IT systems security (cryptography and methodology), information systems auditing, research and development.

Information Systems Engineering (GSI), Bilingual

Objective : to train engineers who are capable of designing, perfecting and developing information systems.
The information system has become an essential business tool and supplies useful data for taking strategic decisions. It evolves in response to technological advances, optimisation and security requirements, and changes to the business itself.

Subject areas studied are software projects, urbanisation and information systems architecture, data storage and exchange, .Net and JEE platforms, decision support systems.

Two possible study routes are proposed :

‘network computing’
‘decision support systems’

Automation and Industrial Robotics (ARI), Bilingual

Objective : to train engineers who are capable of understanding, analyzing, modelling and manage industrial systems. Fields include automation and computer control, digital signal processing and microcontrollers, instrumentation (real and virtual), production automation and local industrial networks, robot modelling and control, image processing and quality control, power electronics and electro technology.

Embedded Systems Engineering (ISE), Bilingual + in English

Objective : in the space of a few years, embedded electronics has become an important area in sectors as diverse as the automotive, aeronautics, telephony, consumer equipment and medicine.

Through targeted technology lessons, seminars and industry case studies, this major prepares students in the design and development of such systems where the hardware and software are closely connected.

The principle areas and tools studied for this major are real time OS’s, methodology, microcontrollers, programmable logic and VHDL, bus communication, embedded communication (USB, IP, ZigBee) and EMC.

Electrical Engineering and Transport (GET), Bilingual

Objective : to train engineers who are capable of facing the industrial problems associated with the electrical energies present in terrestrial and embedded networks as well as the problems linked to electric motor power (in the automotive, aeronautics, rail and shipbuilding sectors) and industrial hazards.

Subject areas studied are energy (production, transport, networks, and management), renewable energies, rotating machines, electric traction, power electronics, real time control, communication instrumentation and networks, EMC and modelling, safety and prevention of industrial hazards.

Mechatronics and Electrical Engineering (MCTGE), Bilingual

Objective : to train engineers who are capable of applying mechatronic projects to several different sectors (automotive, aeronautics, robotics) and combining mechanics, electronics and real time computing.

The principle areas and tools studied for this major are mechanics, electronics/power electronics and electro mechanics, automation, real time OS’s, hardware, multiphysics (thermal engineering, EMC, simulation), modelling/simulation systems (bond graph approach), mechatronic project management.

Energy and Sustainable Development (EDD)

Objective: this major aims to train engineers who are capable of:

Mastering the technologies involved in energy systems (modes of production, transport and distribution)
Carrying out a needs analysis for a private or industrial facility
Proposing energy solutions which combine energy efficiency, environmental impact (greenhouse gas emissions) and economic profit.
Understanding standardization, regulation, fiscal issues and market strategies which apply to the energy sector

Biomedical Engineering (IBIOM)

Objective: biomedical engineering groups together all applications of science and technology related to the fields of health and the living being.

Training is based around scientific teaching modules including :

Life sciences (physiology and biology)
Electronic instrumentation (sensors, metrology, miniaturisation)
Embedded systems (architectures, embedded software, fast bus)
Signal and image processing (2D and 3D vision, image processing, classification)

And modules with a professional bias :

Biomedical techniques (imaging, instrumentation, monitoring)
Design, maintenance and quality (understanding the brief, metrology)
Regulatory and normative framework (standards, traceability, life cycles)
Series of seminars (patient psychology, HCI, biomaterials).

The scope of possible career paths is diverse – biomedical engineer in hospital environments, research engineer, commercial engineer, business start-ups, etc.

Business Engineer (IA)

Objective: half of the programme for this major is made up of taught lessons which have the aim of providing managerial and social skills specific to the profession of business engineer. These include psycho sociological approaches, meeting strategies, theatre workshops, employment/social law, business law, negotiation techniques, risk management, economic intelligence.

The technological aspect of the profession makes up the second half of the major.

Each student will choose one of two study paths offered :

‘Energy Distribution and Signals’ which deals with the fields of logic controllers and ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), weak currents and optics, electrical energy, electromagnetic compatibility, wireless networks.
‘IT and Networks’ which deals with the fields of software project management, software architectures, web technologies, responding to tenders, etc.

Financial Engineer (IF)

Objective: to train engineers who are capable of working in the wide ranging field of finance for business and markets. This discipline, which is becoming more and more sought after, requires having an advanced knowledge in this area in addition to their scientific discipline.

The programme for this transversal major, which was devised according to market needs, offers an equal distribution between taught lessons in mathematics and IT on the one hand, and non scientific lessons on the other (financial project management, risk management, portfolio management and financial markets, economic monitoring and intelligence, fiscal law, along with financial English and stress management).
