Transport and mobility

At the crossroads of technological, environmental, and societal issues, the transport and mobility sector in the broadest sense has long been an area of excellence at ENSTA. The Institute trains engineers capable of imagining, designing, and deploying innovative solutions to meet the transportation needs of tomorrow.

Whether it be land, rail, naval, or air vehicles, ENSTA is a key player in the discussion and experimentation surrounding new forms of mobility that are safer, more sustainable, and more connected. The teams of research professors cover the entire innovation chain: design and architecture of transport systems, propulsion, advanced materials, embedded systems, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and mobility data analysis.

ENSTA's unique features include:

  • An interdisciplinary approach integrating mechanics, information science, hydrodynamics, and the optimization of complex systems.
  • Maritime expertise that is unique in France, making the school a benchmark in naval architecture, naval defense systems, and marine engineering.
  • A strong focus on land and air mobility, with leading industrial and institutional partnerships in the automotive, rail, and aeronautics sectors.

A commitment to ecological transition, with research on transport electrification, alternative fuels, energy efficiency, and carbon footprint reduction.

ENSTA positions itself as a laboratory of ideas and a catalyst for projects promoting smoother, more responsible, and more resilient mobility. Its graduates are called upon to play a decisive role in inventing the transportation of tomorrow, serving society and the planet.
