24 Sep. 2024

On sept 19th and 20th, the final days of the first edition of the Master’s Degree in Digital Twins for Infrastructures & Cities* took place at Leonard and École nationale des ponts et chaussées.

After an entrepreneurship and innovation workshop presented by Alon Rozen (Dean & CEO of École des Ponts Business School), the afternoon has been dedicated to the Capstone defenses of the French companies (ALTAMETRIS, EUROBIOS, SIEMENS GAMESA) and the Spanish ones (AYESA, NOMMON, Antia & Pachi) the next morning. 

In total, six capstones projects have been presented by the students of the inaugural edition of the Digital Twins Executive Master :

  • Optimization of Scan2BIM Applied to the French Railway Infrastructure, mentored by Altametris

  • Reliability of Asset Data through Remote Multi-Source Measurements, mentored by Eurobios Mews Labs

  • A Simulation of Wind Turbine Sensors Based on Real Data, mentored by Siemens Gamesa

  • A Digital Twin of the Dañador Dam, mentored by Ayesa

  • Digital Twin of a Bike Sharing Service: Optimising Operations through Artificial Intelligence, mentored by Nommon

  • Developing a Predictive Model of Mass Events, mentored by INECO

On friday afternoon, a round table discussion, moderated by Sofia d’Aguiar, Executive Director of EELISA European University Alliance, has taken place before the graduation ceremony on the following topic " The digital revolution in civil engineering: what skills for a more sustainable society?" with researchers and professionals.

About Digital Twins 

In 2023, École nationale des ponts et chaussées launched the Digital Twins Executive Master, an innovative program designed jointly with three technology universities, members of the EELISA Alliance funded by the European Commission. This master's degree is accessible entirely online on a part-time basis (thus compatible with a professional activity) and taught in English. It is dedicated to Digital Twins applied to infrastructures and smart cities. This pioneering course trains engineers and architects in cutting-edge technologies for civil engineering and smart cities. To mark the completion of the first class, which will receive the first European diploma from the EELISA Alliance, the School is organizing a round-table discussion with researchers and professionals on the question of the skills required for the digital and ecological transformation of civil engineering.
