The programs taught in the Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science Department include compulsory classes, exposure weeks, and elective courses. The compulsory classes are divided into three groups.
- Core curriculum classes (e.g. introduction to law, management, languages…) which aim to give you the basics needed by today’s engineers.
- Classes in department: The emphasis is placed on modelling and the big fields of mechanical engineering (fluids, structures and materials, robotics) together with Eco-design.
- Exposure weeks are organized with contributions from experts, professionals, and researchers in the fields of materials, R&D, and design. Trips and visits to companies are also organized.
- A choice of elective courses delivered by the Department or other departments will help you to combine your knowledge of a domain of application with a familiarity with crosscutting tools.
Classes are balanced:
- Management sciences: 25%
- Mechanical engineering: 50% (Fluids, Structures, Materials – metals, polymers, technical ceramics, composite materials, nanomaterials)
- Projects – design: 5% for mechanical modeling program and 30% for robotic program
