Career profiles

In addition to the many specializations offered in the third year, students in the general engineering program are invited to choose one of three career profiles: “Research & Development,” “Entrepreneurship,” or “Large Project Management.”
This module enables students to acquire specific skills tailored to the challenges of their chosen field of activity and engineering profession.

Research & Development

This advanced scientific program is based on Master's 2 courses that can be validated as a double degree and prepares students to pursue a PhD, work as a research engineer, lead applied research projects, and participate in the development of knowledge that gives rise to disruptive technologies.

Entrepreneurship

This program aims to equip students with the skills necessary to transform an idea into a viable project, within an organization or in the creation of a business, by addressing design, financing, and risk management. It includes modules on innovation, multicultural team management, and a tutored project.

Large Project Management

This program trains students in methods of analysis, modeling, and management of complex systems by combining industrial strategy, systems engineering, multicultural project management, and practical application through a supervised project.
